Crippling Alcoholism LP stream 2024-02-22 by Ashtiel | 5 Comments | The Boston noise rock band Crippling Alcoholism are streaming their sophomore record With Love From A Padded Room a week ahead of its February 29th release date, courtesy of Brooklynvegan. The record follows the despondent noise of their 2022 debut When The Drugs That Made You Sick Are The Drugs That Make You Better, which mixed the anxiety-inducing aural outbursts of Daughters with haunting lyricism that touched upon the darkest corners of the human mind.
With Love From A Padded Room expands upon this template with an additional focus on brooding, heavy and melodic gothic rock by way of Type O Negative or even Bambara, while also including somewhat of a more conceptual focus than the debut record (excerpt from the Brooklynvegan article):
"The band says the album is “about a fictional prison and each song captures a different prisoner being held in solitary confinement,” and the brooding, ominous soundscapes set the perfect setting for the dark subject matter. “The album is supposed to feel as though you’re walking down the halls and peering into each cell, track by track,” the band continues. “I won’t go too deep into the character bios, but the characters range from vulnerable street addicts to confused career criminals to sadistic monsters. We used the gothic, noise-rock and ’60s/’70s singer/songwriter elements to weave together each character’s specific beliefs and mental state.”
