Description
With 'G_d’s Pee AT STATE'S END!', Godspeed You! Black Emperor reaffirm their place as one of the most vital voices in post-rock. Released in 2021, the record channels urgency and defiance into sprawling compositions that act as both lament and battle cry. Two 20-minute epics anchor the album, unfurling with a mixture of drone, noise, and breathtaking melodic surges that build from quiet field recordings into overwhelming crescendos. Each passage is meticulously layered, merging feedback-drenched guitars, haunting violin, and thunderous bass into soundscapes that feel both apocalyptic and transcendent.
Balancing these colossal pieces are shorter, self-contained tracks that showcase a more intimate and elegiac side of the band. "Fire at Static Valley" radiates stark, mournful beauty, while "OUR SIDE HAS TO WIN (for D.H.)" delivers a devastatingly direct hymn of solidarity and resistance. Recorded and mixed by Jace Lasek of The Besnard Lakes, the album captures Godspeed You! Black Emperor at their most immediate, weaving together raw anarchic energy with haunting atmospherics. Twenty-five years into their journey, the band continues to create soundtracks for turbulent times, offering both sorrow and hope, collapse and renewal, in a singular and uncompromising vision.
