Sleigh Bells - Crown on the Ground
I’m never any good at keeping up with up the hyped artists—but oh fuck yes. Matthew says:
The first thing you notice about Sleigh Bells’ “Crown on the Ground” is that it is LOUD. Punishingly loud. The treble blares with such intensity that most listeners’ first instinct is to immediately adjust the EQ and turn down the volume— and even then, it hurts a little just to hear it. It’s like the final world-shattering salvo of the Loudness War; a deeply unsubtle scrape of metal-on-metal tones so abrasive that it’s almost shocking to discover that the song isn’t actually some kind of Wolf Eyes-inspired noise experiment, but rather a ridiculously poppy club banger.
