G_d's Pee AT STATE'S END!

Godspeed You! Black Emperor, the renowned Canadian post-rock band, returns with their seventh studio album, "G_d's Pee AT STATE'S END!" released on April 2, 2021, via Constellation.

"Job's Lament" follows, offering a moment of reflection amidst the chaos. "First of the Last Glaciers" showcases the band's knack for creating vast, icy soundscapes, while "where we break how we shine (ROCKETS FOR MARY)" brings a sense of urgency and intensity. "Fire at Static Valley" is a standout, capturing the raw energy and aggression that Godspeed You! Black Emperor is known for.

"GOVERNMENT CAME" continues the theme of societal critique, layered with complex frequencies that add depth to the listening experience. The album concludes with "Cliffs Gaze / cliffs’ gaze at empty waters’ rise / ASHES TO SEA or NEARER TO THEE" and "OUR SIDE HAS TO WIN (for D.H.)," both of which offer a sense of closure and introspection. "G_d's Pee AT STATE'S END!" is a powerful addition to Godspeed You! Black Emperor's discography, showcasing their unique ability to create immersive, thought-provoking music.
