Looks like the insane boys are back and I'm fucking amped, y'all.



Well, I should say back cause they are constantly releasing shit, but man - it looks like this will continue the minimalist, more blunt structure of No One Deserves Happiness - which is fine by me!

No One Deserves Happiness was a beast of an album. I'll definitely be interested in checking this out.

This track is pretty interesting but I feel like the vocals have gotten even weirder.

Well it sounds interesting at least. Not something I would normally be attracted to but I will keep an eye out for more. I should check out that album..... This could grow on me.

Ive probably listened to this song like 30 times since they released it. Incredible. I am stoked for this, hope to get that EP tape they just did soon cause that was also amazing.

This came out on 5/11 and I forgot to listen to it until tonight!

and it rules

A few of the songs are more immediate than others, but none of them is ever boring or predictable. They take risks, they offer surprises, they play with structure in a really engaging way. It sounds more thoughtfully developed than No One Deserves Happiness--it's more of a journey from beginning to end. The last two tracks together are particularly excellent.

PS. I'd like to add the note that the last track quotes Bohumil Hrabal's novel Too Loud a Solitude but I cannot figure out how to do it.

I keep waiting for them to do a collab with Death Grips. It makes sense and needs to happen.

I love nearly everything The Body have done and this album (I Have Fought Against It...) is pretty bad. Nothing Stirs is the best song. Just rehashed stuff similar to what they did on No One Deserves Happiness but not as good and the lack of guitars and Chip's vocals on most of the songs is disappointing. Shit is pretty predictable at this point and the guest vocals from the Uniform singer are so bad I don't even want to listen to that collab album.

I guess this is what happens when you make an album a year worth of material for a several years in a row. I don't expect them to make something as good as All The Waters of the Earth Turn to Blood but now I feel they will just continue to move farther from what they were on that album and it sucks.
