Description
Efrim Manuel Menuck, founding member of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Thee Silver Mt. Zion and Kevin Doria from Growing and Total Life, are now officially a duo. Menuck recruited Doria to help him translate his acclaimed 2018 album Pissing Stars from the studio to the stage, and the pair have been touring under the Efrim Manuel Menuck moniker for the pastyear (often with Dorias latest solo project KGD opening the proceedings). Theyve also been co-writing piles of new material, diving deeper into whirling maximalist electronics,still shot through with Menucks incantatory singing awash in plaintive distortion and hope. Efrim Manuel Menuck & Kevin Doria are SING SINCK, SING presents the first volume of songs forged from this febrile and fertile merger: an antifa poetics of sound that unspools across five crushing, keening tracks driven by thick sweeping drones and ostinatos, battered by inscrutably searching, ricocheting vocals. Anguish,yearning, and desperate conviction combine in these saturated survivalist electro-hymns, for as long as the power stays on to overload the amplifiers.
RIYL: Suicide, Wolf Eyes, Anne Briggs, Harry Smith, Yellow Swans, Silver Mt Zion, Fighting Fascism: How To Struggle And How To Win by Clara Zetkin.
