Way back in 2007, HEALTH released their excellent self-titled debut and t-shirts that confused every party-goer I ran into on the weekend.
Overflowing with avant-noise and incredibly proficient drumming, that initial LP bombarded the listener in all right ways. Next week, the band's sophomore effort officially drops, but it isn't as non-linear or experimental as its predecessor.
Sure, the zoothorn, feedback shrieks, and raw synthesizers still assault the ears, but more focused drumming and the addition of vocals give their songs structure, so much so that HEALTH songs actually sound like songs now.
The single for "Die Slow" has been out for awhile, but the epileptic and bloody video premiered on the web today and is worth a view, if only for its eerie infomercial feel. Check it out here and get a feel for some of the forthcoming record's best tracks below.
