Their (new) first album is amazing. Krauty, violent, dreamy, highly rhythmic. My sweet spot.

P sure only ilx is the only place you'll find "fans of Prolapse" these days

Well, a logical posting then.

Mogwai have great titles but their music is so dull. Usually bad titles = bad music, but not in this case. One can just listen to Glenn Branca or even Bark Psychosis.

On an unrelated note, this is a bit like 'liquid funk' the best genre name in the world, quickly became one of the most white studenty offshoots of drum n bass.

sir this is an Arby's

I really like this a lot

I can see the Mogwai thing but this feels different, has a unique feel. They seem to go for hypnotic repetition and not the grand gestures of Mogwai

Sometimes feels like a post metal Slint or something, or a funkier Shellac

Love the drumming

This is the Raime side project, right? I didn't know they had an album, excited to hear this.

My first thought was The For Carnation - a similar sense of control and creeping dread. Will definitely give it another go. Didn't realise it had a Raime connection but that makes total sense.

not familiar with Raime will have to check them out

like I really fucking love this, goddamn

For Carnation is a good call

the first Raime album and early EPs are stunning, their other stuff is hard for me to get into but definitely interesting

I love Prolapse, but find Mogwai mostly boring. Will give this a go anyway

to name something is to know something, and to know something is to know i know nothing, and that's what i want. see?
