The Knife - "Colouring of Pigeons"
This year more than any other, I've had something awful to say about a certain album, later to find that I was completely wrong. I haven't heard the entirety of The Knife's terrifying new disc, but "Epochs" was enough to scare me away from the band when I heard it at the beginning of the year. Unfortunately, this wasn't the good kind of terrifying either, not like The Faint or Ugly Organist-era Cursive or anything. This was more of a front row at a Slipknot concert kind of terrifying, something I never want to have to experience. However. Despite it's being creepy, "Colouring of Pigeons" has a certain hidden beauty masked (get it?) by that aura of terror, something I've never heard before. I know that the fact that it's over eleven minutes long and most of the vocals are done by an opera singer may sound a bit unappetizing, but hey, try something new.
