Through the noise is a subtle tinge of melody, sometimes reminiscent of Nirvana and the Pixies‘ melodic sensibilities and ocassionally going so far as to warrant minor comparisons to Weezer (via Pinkerton, not any of that “Beverly Hills” or “Pork & Beans” bullshit). War Baby captures the veracious energy of Bleach-era Nirvana while adapting the guitar-warping magic of Dinosaur Jr., making for a listen both engaging and energetic. While I was able to stream the entirety of War Baby’s upcoming full-length Death Sweat thanks to the band but only have a stream “Master Blaster” to offer in this post, I can promise that the track is an accurate testament to the strength of the album as a whole. Receiving an email entitled “Future Unmetal Monday with War Baby?” was a heartening thing to read, as it demonstrates that his column’s reach is strong and allows for a healthy, symbiotic relationship of discovering new music and showcasing new artists. Eden Kupermintz War Baby – “Master Blaster” But that’s cool as well it’s nice to see the guys (or those who are still actually part of this iteration of ELO) do their thing. The other track, “When I Was A Boy,” is a bit more stock, in the sense that you always knew what this track would sound like. Sure, it’s dad rock but it’s enjoyable and interesting. The vocals go by smoothly, the guitar is pleasant and everything just screams “veteran musicians who know what they’re about”. “When the Night Comes” is this chilled out, almost reggae track that reminds one of The Police at parts and The Clash on the others. Sure, I wasn’t blown away and nothing on them “brings back” the glory of their long career but they’re good track. Hesitantly, since I grew up on the band among other influences, I clicked on the two links attached. So, when I opened my computer the other day, I never imagined that a message reading: “errr, apparently ELO are back?” would be displaying. Scott Murphy Elo – “When the Night Comes” & “When I Was a Boy” If this is how all of Mutants‘s twenty tracks pan out, the experience will be one of masochistic pleasure. The result is a track that mesmerizes with it overall simplicity but intrinsic detail, eliciting numerous discomforting emotions. “EN” in particular is a simple track: low rumbling noise and chords, ambient, moan-like drones and persistent vocal samples repeating apparent bursts of audible ecstasy. That reaction should seem appropriate after listening to the actual aforementioned tracks Arca’s apparent approach is admittedly uncomfortable due to their openly sensual sounds.
STREAM RAURY ALL WE NEED UPDATE
When the Londond-based producer uploaded explicit single-art for another Mutant track named “Vanity,” he provided a subsequent update that Twitter had deleted his account permanently. Not everyone is down with Arca‘s goal of “sensuality and impulsiveness as escape routes out of rigidity” on his upcoming sophomore album Mutant, due out November 20th via Mute.

Doing that has kind of ruined the creative process for me in the past, and I don’t want to let that happen again.” I close my eyes, and don’t want to know what anyone else is doing. What I try not to do when I’m working in this creative period, the cooking of the mess, is go to other peoples’ exhibitions and look at other peoples’ work.

I don’t want to say too much about it, but I’m at that phase of experimentation. I’m working on it at the moment, and it’s going very well. That happened last week when mastermind Jamie Hewlett confirmed in an interview that it was indeed happening and that 2016 would be its year of release. Now, we’ve known that the first album to be released since 2010’s Plastic Beach is on its way but it’s always nice to receive more confirmation. It doe sn’t get much more intelligent, self-referencing and evolving than them: just listen to Demon Days and then to Escape to Plastic Beach and you’ll see what I mean. It’s OK to like some of their things and others less, but if you don’t really, really like one of their albums then you’re doing something wrong.

OK, listen: if you don’t like the Gorillaz then there’s something wrong with you. Gorillaz Announce New Music is Coming in 2016 Head past the jump to dial down the distortion: Unmetal Monday is a weekly column which will cover noteworthy news, tracks and albums from outside the metal universe, and we encourage you all to share your favorite non-metal picks from the week in the comments. While we have occasionally covered non-metal topics in past blog posts, we decided that a dedicated column was warranted in order to more completely recommend all of the music that we have been listening to. Like the grand majority of modern metal fans, our tastes here at Heavy Blog are incredibly vast, with our 3X3s in each Playlist Update typically covering numerous genres and sometimes a different style in each square.
