Mount Kimbie have shared the second single from their upcoming Cold Spring Fault Less Youth album, pushing their post-dubstep sound into territories that are much stranger than the muted club melodies of “Made to Stray.” From its free associative lyrics (lines like “We’ve been blessed/ And I’ve been cursed/ But you can watch them pass at the same rate”) to its spare, militaristic drums, “Blood and Form” is a bit unsettling, yet another example of how the duo values songwriting over tired sampling techniques and dancefloor-optimized drops.
Cold Spring Fault Less Youth is due out May 28th through Warp.
