Body, The 'Christs, Redeemers'
Released in 2013, 'Christs, Redeemers' is one of The Body’s most harrowing and uncompromising works to date. The duo of Chip King and Lee Buford craft an overwhelming blend of crushing doom, black metal ferocity, and abrasive noise, creating a bleak soundscape that challenges the limits of heavy music. Their signature misanthropy permeates every moment, delivering a relentless, oppressive listening experience.
Recorded at Machines With Magnets in Pawtucket, RI, the album also features a diverse group of collaborators, including the ethereal Assembly of Light Choir, noise artist Work/Death, and Ryan Seaton of Callers. These contributions heighten the record’s intensity, weaving haunting choral passages and experimental textures into The Body’s dense, unforgiving sound. 'Christs, Redeemers' stands as a powerful statement—an unflinching exploration of despair, noise, and the avant-garde, cementing the band’s reputation as one of the most boundary-pushing forces in extreme music.
