Steve Summers
Always
Steve Summers! ''Always'' builds up as a web of metallic syncopation pulsing with threat. A dangerous motif swerves in like pissed-off porpoises, slick with black grime after an oil spill. Vocals show up: they sound like somebody kidnapped a larynx and forced it to MC at the center of a badass board game. A disembodied voice box in the middle of a cardboard landscape. On ''Resist'' that same captive voice rings through a metal hockey mask, as the instrumental elements seem to narrate an assault in progress. We're taping you down to the table, don't bother to resist. On the B side a Torn Hawk remix takes ''Always'' to never-never land; the malice of the original track gets dressed up with puffy orange clouds (Cheetos). Traditions go in the toilet, return to the fundamental river, only to wash up in the reeds, fresh again . A melodic explosion hides at the center of the progression under hospital-grade gauze; C-4 strapped to the chest of a stuffed bunny suicide bomber.
