The Knife

The Knife are very cool. The vocals are a little weird and when I first heard them I wasn't sure if that was a good thing or not.

A Lung is such a good song to listen to in the middle of the night.

If they're Swedish I gotta check them out, I'm meant to be there this time tomorrow, but am not.

Heartbeats is a goodern.

In case you don't know, The Knife will release Shaking the Habitual on April 8/9. They've revealed a new single, "Full of Fire", but it keeps getting pulled from YouTube and other places where an official video was posted. Are they screwing with us? I don't know. But I did have a chance to hear the 9+ minute song track once. I found it interesting but I think it will work better as part of the album. I was surprised that for a 9 minute track it didn't seem to really go anywhere. Not that I didn't enjoy the sounds. Really excited to hear the album.

Here is a rumored track list:

A Tooth for an Eye — 6:04
Full of Fire — 9:17
A Cherry on Top — 8:43
Without You My Life Would Be Boring — 5:14
Wrap Your Arms Around Me — 4:36
Crake — 0:55
Old Dreams Waiting to Be Realized — 19:02
Raging Lung — 9:58
Networking — 6:42
Oryx — 0:37
Stay Out Here (feat. Shannon Funchess) — 10:42
Fracking Fluid Injection — 9:54
Ready to Lose — 4:36

That's an ambitious track list. A lot of the songs are a lot longer than we're used to from this band. Hope they don't get carried away.

Looking forward to it. Not heard much by them yet but that track listing looks ambitious enough for me to check it out.

Listen to Silent Shout ASAP, it's a great winter album.

So the sinlge was pretty damn great, too bad I only heard it once before the video got taken down. I believe the track listing is official. On one side I'm very happy with 98 minutes of The Knife, on the other hand I fear it might be a little too long. Double albums tend to bore me quickly.

I agree, new material is good but long/double albums usually mean less filtering and some filler.

The new single has me impressed. I'm definitely wanting to hear more.

The only album I own by them is Deep Cuts, which is a very strong album.

I also own Karin's solo project "Fever Ray", and absolutely LOVE it. Anyone else ever give that a listen?
