About This Item
On THE FVCKHEATED LVNG, New York visual artist and musician Austin Sley-Julian of Sunk Heaven might convince you the lungfish is the spirit animal of 2021. He explains the creatures significance - InchLungfish survive severe drought by laying dormant in dry mud within a membrane until the rain - the emergence of the dormant lungfish from under the drought-ridden mud represents the garish reality of our times.Inch THE FVCKHEATED LVNG is noisy but lucid, fittingly never falling into tropes of academic experimentalism or no-wave. Sley-Julian draws the throughline from dormancy to inequality and societal brutality. The surreal, dub-drenched InchA Nameless InfluenceInch nods more directly to the lineage of violence, of the capacity for sleeping minds to become co-opted by someone elses political agenda. InchHave you ever seen such a tragic red,Inch he asks at the songs beginning, Inchas time stains on the same mistakes?Inch Harsh noise pans in and out, re-enforcing the songs central image.1) Fortitude2) Fall W-O Impact3) Cancer Of The Room (ft.
