The Same Words


Disappears “New Fast”

I like when punk bands get away from standard aggression and instead project undiluted dread and nihilism. Disappears do just that — imagine the steady melodic bass groove as a center, and the rest of the arrangement as a sound that pushes you away from it, or up against it. The vocals are what really push this over the top. He is so monotone that he barely sounds like an actual living human being, and the indifference he conveys is, in its way, far more hostile than yelling and screaming. This is the sound of being totally checked out of live, and it’s kinda terrifying.

Buy it from Amazon.
