The Body - All the Waters of the Earth Shall Turn to Blood (2010)
if Fuck Buttons made a hardcore album, it might sound like this. it draws you in until you're so focused on what's going on that you feel every shift in the music. each track features a unique element, and they don't beat you over the head with it like a lesser band would (check the sick stutter cuts in track 3). great sense of timing and restraint throughout - even the vocals are used well, for texture or emphasis. basically, you could write a master's thesis on how awesome this album is. definitely on my short list for album of the year.
Best of 2010
Thanks for the head's up on this. It's pretty intense, to say the least. Which is always a good thng.
Great blog you have here by the way.
Do you mean beat you over the head with it like Fuck Buttons? lol
i have no idea why you would call this hardcore
i'm bad with genres. what would you call it? post-hardcore? i threw in a doom tag, but it basically sounds like puffed-up hardcore/metalcore to me
