What a great way to start off the new year. Straddling the line between punk and industrial Big Black is funny, nihilistic and pummeling.
For the first time in a long time I actually want to go back and listen to their earlier EPs.
Wow.
Here’s a thing I didn’t know: Music industry giant Steve Albini is a founder of this thing. Again. Wow.
There’s much hype about the song “Kerosene”, both for it’s content and it’s music. It is a post-rock thing of industrial wonder, as far as I’m concerned.
I love this record. It’s the logical next step in this sound’s evolution.
