There’s no hand-holding on @SprainBand’s new record—try to free-solo this mountain and you’ll find no grips to help floodmagazine.com/142360/spr…

Sprain, “The Lamb as Effigy”

Constructed more like an avant-garde score than a traditional rock album, the 97-minute second LP from the LA-based noise-rock group is a complex piece of music-as-art.

Reviewed the new @SprainBand album. Listened to it several times and each go-round felt like getting jumped in an alleyway and beaten with metal baseball bats while someone aggressively read surrealist poetry at me (I loved it) youtube.com/watch?v=N695ta29…

Last night @SprainBand played a show that made me go "this band demands a @BigEarsFestival audience". Truly commanding the stage in viciously cunning ways that tranced me out as Liturgy did at the previous festival. Much love to the quartet & thank you April for the setlist

Still processing what i saw last night, Sprain played a 2 hour set of unrelenting, cathartic chaos. Alex Kent was pouring his blood sweat & tears (literally) on that stage and he is now one of the best performers i’ve ever seen. And i got my 2nd ever setlist thanks @SprainBand!!

You could already hear the seeds of something incredible in their debut, but even then I couldn't have predicted that Sprain would release something as SHEER as The Lamb As Effigy. If you want to witness the birth of a modern classic, here's your chance. youtu.be/-ZMGu1MfdME
