brett I think this is my favourite The Body collab (and probably Thou, too). A perfect combination of the two bands' sounds and styles. Not so much amalgam but more a mosaic - all those distinct pieces interlocking to create a greater whole, an immense work. Plus, it has Terrible Lie. Favorite track: Beyond the Realms of Dream, That Fleeting Shade Under the Corpus of Vanity.

Hunter McMillin One of the screams in the terrible lie cover is wicked as hell. This is one of my top ten favorite metal albums. Favorite track: Terrible Lie.

about

The Body and Thou are bands with Southern roots that have been pushing the boundaries of heavy metal for over a decade. Both have maintained relentless touring schedules, a dedication to DIY ethics and aesthetics, and a commitment to push their respective brands of extreme music into previously unexplored territories. On their two collaborative releases they showcase their unique ability to create music that is emotionally effecting and unrelenting.

On You, Whom I Have Always Hated, each band’s distinctive elements shine through and combine to create something more visceral than the sum of their parts. While the groups have different approaches to live performance and stylistic nuances, they share general creative ideas and have a history subsumed in themes of alienation, melancholy, and despair. They describe this collaboration as “a twilight dungeon crawl exploring the winding, ruined halls of Mad King Duro’s Castle, best friends at your side, enemies crushed beneath your heels, mysteries solved, and treasures found.”

In keeping with Thou’s tradition of 90s worship and The Body’s knack for ingenuity, the release includes versions of “Terrible Lie” by Nine inch Nails and “Coward” by Vic Chesnutt. The remainder was written collaboratively in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and then further refined on their 2014 tour together.
