Oh also this little gem came out. A lot of hardcore noise enthusiasts (who probably never really liked/appreciated Fuck Buttons in the first place) will disregard this record as Fuck Buttons’ descent into the maelstrom of dance electronic acts that exists in hipster music culture today. This is due in part to the presence of producer Andrew Weatherall, a noted electronic dance music producer with roots in 90s techno such as Orbital, and his own IDM band Two Lone Swordsmen. So, out is previous producer John Cumming (Mogwai) and with him the industrial, tribal beats of their gently harmonious noise. In is the earsplittingly intense anthemic dance manifestos. Their new producer is a prominent but welcome addition to what could otherwise have been vapid reduction of the best (and worst) of American noise over the past years. They were never supposed to be Yellow Swans.
This is an awesome album. With song titles such as Surf Solar, Space Mountain, and Flight of the Feathered Serpent, and electronic beats to match perfectly, they must have been on a lot of drugs between the Street Horrrsing tour and the recording of this and my guess is that those drugs were ecstasy pills. [Don't do ecstasy pills they are dangerous]
