Our Take
Frail Body's latest offering, "A Brief Memoriam," is a whirlwind tour de force of emotional intensity and sonic experimentation. It's like they took all the angst and frustration of a teenager's diary and set it to a cacophony of guitars and drums. The album kicks off with "Pastel," a track that immediately grabs your attention with its raw aggression and haunting melodies. Frontman John Hoffman's vocals range from delicate whispers to gut-wrenching screams, perfectly capturing the fragile beauty of the band's sound. Tracks like "Your Death Makes Me Wish Heaven Was Real" showcase Frail Body's ability to seamlessly blend post-hardcore, screamo, and shoegaze influences into a cohesive and powerful whole. The instrumentation is complex and dynamic, with layers of guitar and bass building and collapsing in a mesmerizing crescendo. The production on "A Brief Memoriam" is top-notch, with each instrument and vocal track crystal clear and perfectly balanced. The album's sound is simultaneously expansive and claustrophobic, creating a sense of unease and tension that never lets up. Overall, "A Brief Memoriam" is a stunning achievement from Frail Body, solidifying their reputation as one of the most exciting bands in the post-hardcore scene. It's a must-listen for fans of bands like Touche Amore and Pianos Become the Teeth. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
