Life Suits You Well, Huh?

THE REVIEW

An album like Life Suits You Well, Huh? should be part of everyone's collection. Life Suits You Well, Huh? is a 2016 album that warmly embraces all the various offshoots of that fragile yet monumental creature that is Spiderland.
Plenty of spoken and sung words just enough. The spoken world navigates between the apathy of McMahan (Old Men From Illinois) and a Mark E. Smith on speedball (Eckbank).

The influences are among the most diverse and evocative, with Slint and Codeine standing tall above all, equally alive in the tracks. What follows is a plethora of artists engaging in the revelry: Polvo, Unsane, Rodan, June Of 44, Sigur Ros, Mogwai, My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and who knows what else and how much more can be perceived.

Flogaveiki, dominated by echoes and reverbs elevated to a threatening and immobile drone, splits the album with its bloated progression; Parking Lot Anatomy Teacher has a shoegaze flavor in its unusual finale with a very high and heavily filtered voice, as if we were in the presence of the most dreamy Drop Nineteens on a wall-of.sound among the most metal of post-gaze.

The tracks are climaxes with the perpetual indecision whether to explode or implode.
What I haven't told you is that they are from Milan.
The other thing is that unfortunately they have disbanded.

"...I mean, I don't really get...of...but damn when I saw the video on YouTube I got scared -damn- such a prehistoric thing still works today. Yes. Because it works..." "...No, no, you redo it with few means. Maybe with a milling machine, a lathe, a file. Redo the pieces. A thing made by man."
