“My lyrics reflect on how fondness of the past and senses of nostalgia can affect and influence the present, and especially in a political sense, not for the better. This notion of working towards 'getting things back to how they used to be,’ feels very backwards. The ‘good old days’ never existed,” explains frontman Matt Baty. “Having El-P collaborate with us on this track was absolutely mind blowing. Word class lyricist. No smoke and mirrors, sees and tells it exactly the way it is.“ Bassist John-Michael Hedley adds: “‘Glib Tongued’ was an idea I’d been sitting on for a few years. It felt like the right time to inject it into Death Hilarious. Though after bringing it to the table it morphed into something bigger and better than I could have ever imagined. Securing El-P’s services for a verse blew my mind and I feel immensely proud that an idea I’d worked on during an extremely dark time in my life, has flourished into a powerful force for good. I hope.” “Glib Tongued” follows the release of the “righteous horns-up riff-beast” (Stereogum) “Stitches” and the “five-plus-minute crusher” (Consequence) “Detroit” that was released in November. The songs have been praised by BrooklynVegan, Glide Magazine, Metal Injection, Metal Sucks, The Needle Drop, New Noise Magazine, Stereogum, Vanyaland, Consequence and many more. Last year, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs released a Record Store Day exclusive vinyl release of their explosive KEXP session, which has surpassed one million views on YouTube. Death Hilarious follows their breakthrough fourth studio album Land of Sleeper which was acclaimed by Pitchfork, Bandcamp Daily, Consequence of Sound, The Quietus, DIY Magazine, AllMusic and many more. In their 4 star review, The Guardian proclaimed, “their Black Sabbath-esque doom riffs make them accessible to anyone who has overlooked the past few decades worth of hard rock history… it’s undeniable that the band’s fourth album Land of Sleeper will keep listeners entrenched in their heady cosmos.” North American Tour: |
