Undoubtedly, one of Sweden’s best kept underground secrets are SUFFOCATE
FOR FUCK SAKE. Without having played a single show for ten years
now, the band finally shows a new sign of life by releasing the successor
to their critically acclaimed album “Blazing Fires and Helicopters on the
Frontpage of the Newspaper. There’s a War going on and I’m Marching in
Heavy Boots“ from 2008. The upcoming full-length “In My Blood” comes via
Moment of Collapse Records and contains nine songs of post-rock driven,
sludgy heaviness, that is buried deep down between desperation, anger
and salvation.
Once again, the band proves their willingness to write long-lasting songs
of atmospheric soundscapes that are rounded off by layers of additional
instruments and samples. SUFFOCATE FOR FUCK SAKE are not just known
for crafting album concepts by using radio reports, but also for their ability
to incorporate them into their distinctive sound. With such a stylistic composition,
“In My Blood” rather assumes the form of a soundtrack than a simple
album compiled of loose tracks. With such an intense atmosphere on “In
My Blood”, SUFFOCATE FOR FUCK SAKE demonstrate that they are indispensable
for the Swedish underground scene.
“In My Blood” was recorded and mixed by the band in several different
studios and places across Sweden and Germany while being mastered by
HENRIK WIKLUND afterwards. The vocal samples are taken from the radio
documentary “Förädlade svenskar” by Bosse Lindquist. Additional vocals
on the album have been contributed by CHARLEE (who is also known for
performing with the pop-act THE CHAINSMOKERS). Highly recommendable
for everyone who enjoys GODSPEED YOU BLACK EMPEROR, ENVY, CULT
OF LUNA and BREACH!
