As interesting as this album is, it's a bit of a trainwreck. A bloated monstrous 2-disc assault that takes the weirdness from Silent Shout but removes all pop sensibilities and catchy melodies. You're left with a lot of pure atmosphere and insanity but it all feels extremely hollow for me and more like they are trying to make an artistic statement.
And it feels really hypocritical to release an album with a "fuck rich people" vibe when you're as rich as The Knife have gotten from how much they earned on their earlier stuff. Sorry but maybe if this was their first album I could defend the political feminist punk attitude but from someone like The Knife it just doesn't work.
It's fine having an album with a few lengthy songs but when almost none of the songs here are less than 6 minutes and some of them reach 10-20 minutes in length, you're kind of left with something that is frankly unlistenable on its own unless you just like this sort of stuff.
Personally I much prefer The Knife's earlier stuff and this just feels like they're ending on a very embarassing note for me... -
Sorry for those who were expecting a new "Silent Shout". Well, I was too, and at the first two or three listening sessions I thought "What the hell!". But, getting rid of useless expectations I started to appreciate this incredible album. No melody here, lots of sick and morbid atmospheres, there's noise and dissonance you would expect from someone like Nurse With Wound or Organum! I praise their courage to turn the page and leave behind the easiness of "Silent Shout". "Raging Lung" is their new masterpiece, that song gave me the shrivels when I saw them live and both the stage setting and the music seemed to conjure the spirit of Coil for a moment. Well done!
