The new album is shaping up to be the best yet

I was scared they wouldn't still be as good. I was fearing for no reason.

But "she" that hides a dark soul, and foul thoughts. Benighted walks under the mid-day Sun; Herself is her own dungeon. Milton 1634

I know their early stuff was extremely good but i can't help but think this is how it's supposed to sound. This is the apotheosis.

This is what a lot of folks in the 80’s & 90’s wanted to achieve, but failed miserably. All hail Arab Strap!

Wonderful song: rhythm, melody, all wonderful.

Brilliant vid for a brilliant song by a brilliant band x

Absolutely magnificent The return of Arab Strap and the absolute quality of this, turning and Compersion has been such an unexpected delight The album cannot come quick enough

Jeezo, this is grim AF lyrically even by Arab Strap standards, but the tune itself is so utterly danceable..

It's the story of a predator who's created a life of ruin for himself. For some reason though, that guy believes it's everyone else's fault. None of us made you gay for pay at the bar

Excellent!

Excellent! And the video, Jesus. Doubly appropriate as the song itself kinda smells like the inside of a plastic Halloween mask after a night of Trick or Treating, and I've now got a slit on the tip of my tongue.

@@ursaminorjim ok, i'm happy it amuses you. Probably your life is economically and morally exented, or plainly safe out of these family tragedies. I know well Art could be sublime, hurting, not just through entertaining. And I sincerely hope Aidan Moffat is now aware of that, while reaching the succesfull level of a healthy, wealthy and joyful social membership.

@@guillermosantamarinalagune6184 We all experience art in different ways, but I think we can all recognize that there are different layers to explore in a song (especially one this excellent). If I respond differently than you, it doesn't take anything away from your experience of it. And it's an equally valid response - there's no one way to enjoy something. But don't make assumptions about my life, please - you don't know me, you don't know my experiences.

This is incredible. Found these guys via the goth subreddit. Anyone have suggestions for similar artists doing incredible music like this in 2021? Thanks and 93 to all

Fuck me thats a good video !!!

I look like that guy holding the lead.

It's Aidan behind the mask...

Sounds a lot like She wants revenge.

I can't say I was too keen on this - I preferred their earlier work.
