Mutilator Defeated At Last

Mutilator Defeated at Last takes some of the sounds Thee Oh Sees experimented with on more schizophrenic Drop and focuses them into a more consistent but less adventurous album. nine muscular tunes primed to pummel to. Mutilator Defeated At Last has the most in common with the monolithic hugeness of Floating Coffin - with only two slight reprieves in heaviness this is a record made to be played loudly and that demands bodily sacrifice inherently. Despite the plutonium heavy feel, Thee Oh Sees continue to be omnivorous - synths and acoustic guitars expertly wind their way throughout like veins of gold through granite - any and all that stands in its way will be devoured and assimilated. This is the sound of a band doing what they do best.

Addendum to Mutilator

Fortress

Fortress is a song that personifies the unconfined energy one band can hole up after years and years of aforementioned energy, whether we like it or not.

"Culled from the same sessions as the mighty Mutilator Defeated At Last, here we have a heavy little bit of wax for you to bite into. Fortress is backed by Man In A Suitcase, an old live favorite. 8 armed, kinetic, and racing ahead into distinctly dreamy and proggy territory, these two tracks are cut from nightmare cloth as only JPD and co. can weave, with an emphasis on the tossing and turning. A must have addendum to Mutilator, and a lovely appetizer to whet your appetite for another full length."
