Triple Negative – God Bless the Death Drive [LP]

"Literally taking off where the acclaimed Precious Waste in our Wake LP (PP 041LP, 2019) finished off, London based outfit Triple Negative return with another exemplary amplified jigsaw puzzle. The playback of this reality is garnished with humor, bedlam, beauty, and a robust fear of the predictable. As payback for your acknowledgment our international line-up delivers a disparate mix of genres and histographies rendered into a devious dish of rhythm, song, balladry, and nerve. This is Not This Heat. A.Kostis/Kostas Bezos's "Stin Ypoga" (1930) is the template for "Bad Emotional Investments" whilst the haunting "Fine Cargo Lacquer" takes flight from the morbidly on point novel The Death Ship by B. Traven (1926). God Bless the Death Drive could be construed as a compass to navigate the wayward wonder we inhabit or it can just be enjoyed. This second full-length steers into scathed realms of everyday junk and poignant punk, all pressed down on the lowest quality ethylene and chlorine. Triple Negative return with another stamped digest of hope as joke, noise and song, rollicking rhythm and seasick soul. High gloss sleeve with printed comic book inner sleeve; Edition of 500."
