Harvey Milk

mug_mug_mug [Edit] [Delete] 21:26, 10 August '06

Relapse are soon to rerelease 'Courtesy and Goodwill Towards Men' by Harvey Milk. For me this record is what is commonly known as a blinder. You won't hear a more beautiful metal album.

"Courtesy and Good Will Toward Men is at times fragile, minimal, and achingly beautiful; other times it suffocates with tar-black, crushingly heavy dirges that bend time. The tension that permeates the arrangements is exhausting, and the heart-on-a-sleeve vocals of Creston Spiers are truly gut-wrenching. Simply-stated, Courtesy and Good Will Toward Men is unprecedented, uneasy listening that walks the finest of lines between difficulty and beauty."
