whatever brains: ssr63/ssr64

Not a conventional LP or a double LP, SSR-63/SSR-64 is actually two separate EPs packaged as one. SSR-63 is a single 22-minute track spread across both sides of a 45RPM 12". A series of linked compositions a la Venom’s At War with Satan or the Subhumans’ From the Cradle to the Grave, SSR-63’s lyrics chronicle the plight of a Russian family who lived in complete isolation in remote Siberia for more than 40 years. The music is similarly wide in scope, drifting organically from maximalist punk to minimalist, country-tinged lament to pumping electronica in an astoundingly natural fashion. As for the other 12”, it’s a new 4-song EP called SSR-64, which continues to develop the wide sonic palette that the best tracks on their previous LP hinted at. SSR-64 also delivers “UVOD,” the closest thing to a pop hit Whatever Brains have ever created.
