1000 Hurts

America Canada Back in stocknbspShellac is back for another aural attack with 1000 Hurts a more accessible album than previous fare such as At Action Park Frontman Steve Albini has never sounded looser or more sarcastic than he does on the onetwo opening punch of Prayer to God and Squirrel Song the former finds the screechy one singing wails of resignation over a punchy backing while the latter has him sneering Don't be surprised if I bust out crying before indulging in some wicked aggroarena stylings Cagerattling aces Todd Trainer and Bob Weston are given gonzo airlift by the bigroom sound Albini loves to championit's helium light and lead heavy at the same time
