Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Asunder, Sweet And Other Distress (Vinyl)
There is no such thing as a bad Godspeed You Black Emperor! album.
And this relatively curt 40-minute set – the Montreal multi-instrumentalists’ second recording since their lengthy hiatus ended in 2010 – ranks among their most immediate.
Fist-pumps accompany the sawing crescendo on Piss Crowns Are Trebled. The journey back from the abyss on Peasantry or “Light! Inside of Light!” begins halfway through, when major chords come chorusing in like a cavalry of the just.
Obsessive Godspeed You Black Emperor! watchers may recognise these four tracks from the 45-minute live suite known as Behemoth – not a bad summation of this album’s threat and grandeur. (Guardian)
Tracklist:
A1 Peasantry Or 'Light! Inside Of Light! 10:28
A2 Lambs' Breath 9:52
B1 Asunder, Sweet 6:13
B2 Piss Crowns Are Trebled 13:50
