To all of you who left BSS off of your best albums of the decade: 1. Shame. 2. You are all forgotten. BSS has just put all of you in your place. Download their new track "World Sick," and tell me it doesn't levitate your soul from your body. Tell me it doesn't transport you to a new world. Tell me that you can control the giddy happiness boiling inside you.
With the production of John McEntire, I was a little nervous the texture that was so prominent on "You Forgot It In People" and the self titled album would be lost. But McEntire and crew were able to find a healthy balance of texture and hellish-good anthem rock and roll. As an obsessive fan of BSS, I was skeptical of the upcoming release but I can't hide the joy that I feel listening to this song. Whitemans guitar work warms your feet and Cannings' bass antics are too smooth. As I have grown out of adolescence, BSS has continued to bring me back to that passionate fight of wanting to have to overcome anything and everything. This new song bleeds hope and they have moved me once again. The new album, "Forgiveness Rock Record" is set to be released in the States, via Arts & Crafts May 4th.
