GODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR

So good to have the Montreal post-rockers back with this rambunctious yet mournful record that sizzles with disdain whilst roaring up to the heavens.

With their angelic blend of strings, guitars and buckets of reverb, the breath-taking scenes that they depict can tear through you in an instant and hold it there for 10 or more epic minutes. And, if you're new to t'Speed, just make sure your seatbelt is fastened and your chair is in the upright position. THE PLAIN TRUTH== we drifted through it, arguing. every day a new war crime, every day a flower bloom. we sat down together and wrote it in one room, and then sat down in a different room, recording. NO TITLE= what gestures make sense while tiny bodies fall? what context? what broken melody? and then a tally and a date to mark a point on the line, the negative process, the growing pile. the sun setting above beds of ash while we sat together, arguing. the old world order barely pretended to care. this new century will be crueler still. war is coming. don’t give up. pick a side. hang on. love.
