Human Worth are proud to present the astounding new album Tracked In
Mud from London duo Cassels.
Tracked In Mud comes
three years after the duo's critically acclaimed album A Gut Feeling.
Close to burnout from heavy touring, the brothers Beck returned to their
Harringay warehouse practice space. Jim, tired of his last record's
overtures at pop culture, got very into Converge. New songs came: heavy,
and weird.
Gone are the sharp-tongued character
sketches, replaced with a heady cocktail of philosophy and body horror.
Ditched, too, are the flirtations with mid-aughts indie rock and
electro. On 'Tracked in Mud', we're treated to something bigger. Wilder.
More...elemental. This is a record about humanity's disconnection from
nature, after all.
When the time was right, the Becks
brought in Alex Petersen - aka Nyquist Noise, aka avant-rock demiurge
Vincent Vocoder Voice - to produce the new record, for the first time
since their debut EP. After two weeks of isolation, the three emerged
with 'Tracked In Mud': a soundtrack to life in the final days of an
arrogant, technocratic hellscape.
Ushered in by the
honking of geese, punctuated by field noise, Tracked In Mud is an
album at odds with society, routine, and other man-made things. It
bludgeons you with boulders, invites you to float like mist across
meadows choked with weeds - presenting a thrilling vision of what heavy
music can be.
