Puncture Your Eardrums With Fuck The Facts's New Album, 'Desire Will Rot'

The Canadian bastardized grindcore lunatics are back with their ninth full-length.

Photo by Dave Levitt We here at Noisey love us some Fuck the Facts, and are stoked to share the band's latest affront to civilized music, The Canadians' ninth full-length, Desire Will Rot, is just as tortured and caustic as we've come to expect, but there are flurries of dense leads and a bizarre thread of melody serpentining its way betwixt the blasts and brutish vocals, too. Like its predecessors, it's angular and aggressive grind with a twist, and though their output on labels like Relapse were plenty bonkers, Fuck The Facts' decision to release this album independently allowed them the total freedom to get as weird as they want.

It also allowed them to keep tight control over every step of the process; guitarist Topon Das recorded and mixed the album at his Apartment 2 recording studio where he busies himself between tours, Fuck The Facts releases, and fatherhood, which he's discussed with us before.

It's out August 25, and you can preorder a vinyl, CD, or digital version of Desire Will Rot here. We're stoked to be streaming the entire album below, so pop in some earplugs and crank that shit.

Speaking of touring, if you live in Canada or the northern half of the United States, Fuck The Facts will almost definitely be swinging by your hometown to say what's up in the coming months.
