“DOWNWARD”: YES WE KHANN

Khann’s Andrew LaCour tells Noisecreep that he wrote “Downward” — a new track from the band’s forthcoming album, Erode — “on bass initially, just to have a different perspective on the composition.” So I guess it’s just a doin’-wacky-things-on-the-bass-filled kinda day.

But I honestly don’t care if he wrote the damn thing on a kazoo, ’cause it rocks, and the end result is really all that matters. And if you don’t believe me that the song rocks, you should check it out here, and if you do believe me, you should still check it out here. It’s chaotic hardcore that isn’t afraid to get dreamy and weird, and dreamy and weird and chaotic are fine, fine things to be in my opinion. I mean I just grabbed a MetalSucks Mansion Monkey by the tail and flung him head-first into a different MetalSucks Mansion Monkey, so Khann are doing something right.

Also: the cover art to Erode strongly suggests the band wants you to be high when you listen to this, and who am I to argue with them? Just something you might wanna keep in mind moving forward.

Black Market Activities will release Erode on June 7.
