king krule

aptly titled, ‘the ooz’ is a thick, dark, sticky miasma of discordant madness; mournful saxophones and  tender piano keys collide with post-dubstep synths & archy’s uniquely forlorn vocals, resulting in a deep and raw record that projects the activities of a troubled mind without concealing the ugliness – an honest and powerful listen.

Over jazzy curlicues and guitars, These wrenching themes of self-annihilation and fraying relationships seem inextricably linked in Marshall’s eyes and recur in other tracks. if you like james blake, mount kimbie or mark kozelek, he’s for you. “’the ooz’ creates a brutalist and beautiful terrain, one that we can wander vicariously through King Krule; it’s nothing short of a masterpiece” 9/10 – drowned in sound.
