Given legendary Canadian post rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s previous bold political stances against the American military-industrial complex, we all understood that their next album would deliver a powerful statement against the ongoing genocide in Palestine. "NO TITLE AS OF 13 FEBRUARY 2024 28,340 DEAD", reveals a band openly struggling to express the depths of depraved evil endured by victims of genocide. Their response returns to their more varied, dynamic sound and a willingness to balance every moment of broad, epic, orchestral strokes with tense, pensive, thin drones, mirroring the paradoxical elevation of every monotonous, punishing moment of a victim’s existence to a valiant struggle for survival. For fans who may have strayed away from Godspeed in the reunion years once they took up a more self-consciously grandiose aesthetic, this album brings back all the genuine humility that set this band apart from everything else labeled as neoclassical, just in time for them to comment on a moment they’ve been warning us against for thirty years.
