Attack On Memory
Cloud Nothings
Steve Albini produced this record, intentionally removing the fuzz found on previous releases to highlight a sharp and punchy output. The eight-minute track Wasted Days serves as the central point for the work. It conveys a clear tension between youthful apathy and active frustration.
The shift represents the transition of the band from bedroom pop into a more abrasive indie-rock powerhouse. It serves as a document of the early 2010s underground scene. By focusing on direct instrumentation, the group achieved an urgent sound that maintains its impact through the years. This release stands as a vital point in their development.
