MBM's Opaque Couche To all the fellow zombies out there, there's a new Meat Beat Manifesto album released this week, Opaque Couché. > My hardcopy arrived yesterday. Souds like JD working the studio overtime, building around his own beat-heavy samples and sculpting sound-shapes; it includes a couple of tracks from his last MBM EP, "Ear-Lips" and "Forced to Lie" (certainly a politically-focused title). > Perhaps this collection could have been included in last year's Impossible Star as a double-album, but I think there's just enough variation within it to stand apart. | |

Hey man I also just received my CD in the mail I really like this CD-it's totally different from any other music I've ever heard in my life.....Though I heavily dig every track on this album I'm tied between choosing Moving Pulse & Critical Soul Vibrations as my favorite song from the album. I would also really like to know what the lyrics are for the song [Ear-Lips].....Anyway I'm really excited to hear what they will release next I'm also thankful the band is active in my lifetime so Thank you so much, Meat Beat Manifesto
Peace | |

For me, I find "Pin Drop" to be the hot track here--great to feature as the single to promo the album. > I've been surprised to hear acoustic guitar sprinkled in this collection, prominently within at least one of the tunes, anyway--a very rare heard thing among the breadth of this project! I can't say whether the instrument was originally recorded or sampled. | |

I've stumbled across a nice overview of the album and band, published by Igloo Magazine. Familiar breaks in unfamiliar placeshttps://igloomag.com/news...que-couche > "[Press-Release] According to Brooklyn-based art blog Hyperallergic, opaque couché wins 'the title of "World’s Ugliest Color."' So why did Meat Beat Manifesto (MBM) name its new album Opaque Couché? 'I wanted to do a title based around a particular color, so I wanted to give opaque couché a chance since it’s not black or white,' explains MBM mastermind Jack Dangers."
