Description

From the album Unreleased Released July 2011 track 2

." Their grinding meaty swagger, rising from smouldering embers, create a tumultuous psychedelic brew, like a slow-burning rogue hybrid of The Necks, Bohren & der Club of Gore and a slew of 70s kraut-rocking acid casualties."

Mats Gustafsson's Fire! have significantly raised their game since the release of their 2009 debut, You Liked Me Five Minutes Ago. While that collection was a perfectly satisfactory demarcation of the trio's sprawling, groove-laden template, it never quite caught, ahem, fire. Unreleased?, on the other hand, is a pyro-spewing, laser-radiating monster of a record.
Recorded with the help of guest collaborator Jim O'Rourke in the ex-Sonic Youth man's new home of Tokyo, it comes tearing out of the traps like the Kraken racing out of his undersea lair prior to a ravaging of ancient Joppa. Offering a far more cohesive collection than its predecessor -- the group apparently clearer as to the desired constitution of their extended combustibles -- each individual entry forms a finessed study in nervy tension.
