Mutilator Defeated at Last

Today’s Play it Through Thursday is the 2015 release ‘Mutilator..’ which I think rhymes with Violator, but also reminds me of that album because it comes during a maturing/musical switch up for an established band

Mutilator.. is considered a high-water mark in Thee Oh Sees' extensive discography, marking a crucial pivot point in their sound from raw garage-psych to a heavier, more atmospheric, and "monolithic" style.

The album had a high “hit rate” (i immediately favorited/saved the first four songs offered to me during a random session) and today is actually the first time I’m listening to it all the way through. I’m trusting my instinct on this one.

I hope the uptempo tracks get your head nodding or foot tapping, the 21st century is psych-rock, if you let it
