Black Skies in Broad Daylight

Living Things

Aggressive, politically fueled garage punk with a snarling baritone. Recorded by Steve Albini to sound like a band exploding in a very small, very loud room.

May 18, 2004

Find on Amazon

A high-tension explosion of political frustration and raw, unpolished rock energy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The massive, bone-dry drum crack that opens 'Bombs Below' setting a visceral Albini-stamped tone.
Lillian Berlin's transition from a low, menacing mumble to a full-throated snarl on 'No New Jesus'.
The relentless, driving bassline of 'I Owe' that feels like it's physically pushing the listener forward.
