[Early Show]
Quitter is a record about quitting.
Modelled after Tunic’s live attack, an ugly and unhinged blast of catharsis that can comfortably live beside the tuneful noise of Metz, the spazzy-goth freakouts of Daughters and the riffy melodicism of Pile, the sophomore release from the acrobatic post-hardcore crew is a record about discomfort created “in a relaxed environment because we had done our homework,” recalls David Schellenberg. “We were really prepared and structured going in. That made for a much better record because we knew who we were and what we wanted to sound like.”
Tackling Schellenberg’s new found sobriety and the recent exit of co-founding member Rory Ellis, he and drummer Daniel Unger examined themes of loss, survival and perseverance. That initial struggle of freeing yourself from the bonds of a depressant, its emotional connections and learning new ways to cope outside of substances form the crux of the ideas behind the LP– well, that and a boatload of riffs inspired by everyone from Botch to The Jesus Lizard.
With some time for reflection and even a brief period of -gulp- actually slowing down, Tunic have returned with their most coherent set of songs yet. Quitter is the middle ground between intelligence and blunt-force trauma, channelling rage into a set of songs hellbent on redemption through self-examination. Yet regardless of the bleakness of the lyrical content, the quality of the songwriting and original riffs shine through, making Quitter something that won’t leave your musical headspace.
