Forgiveness Is Yours (LP)
The Fat White Family
Amoeba Review
Fat White Family are back with a bristling, provocative new record, Forgiveness Is Yours. Punk as f$%& in spirit, the band writes anxiety-inducing, strangely soothing songs with elements of post-punk, no wave, and even (haunted) lounge music. As expected, these tracks go hard, even when accentuated by a string section, plinking piano, and harmonies that sound like they could go off the rails at any moment ("Religion for One") or channeling a demonic '80s synthpop act ("What's That You Say?). Forgiveness Is Yours is Fat White Family at their most imaginative and essential.
