Prior to the release of Iceage‘s sophomore album, You’re Nothing, out now on Matador Records, the Copenhagen four-piece made a trip to New York for performances at 285 Kent and the “Thrown Together” gallery event at Home Sweet Home, which featured performances and visuals by Iceage, as well as their peers, inspirations and more. Cali Dewitt made a short documentary around Iceage’s visit, set to audio of a live performance of You’re Nothingstandout track, “Morals.” Watch the documentary via Pitchfork TV and catch Iceage live as they begin their tour of North America later this month.

WHAT’S BEEN SAID ABOUT YOU’RE NOTHING:

“You’re Nothing turns everything up – it’s smarter, faster, catchier and noisier than their debut, more a Funhouse than a Rock for Light. This points to another pleasure of the underground: watching young bands go from good to great in real time.” — SPIN

“Iceage has only improved on its formula of turbulent energy and disaffected poetry, managing still to sound youthful, even juvenile – not such a stretch, age-wise – while reaching toward new ambitions.”  — The New York Times

“Iceage write brilliant songs; on You’re Nothing, they’ve found a way to clarify these compositional skills without stripping away their power . . . New Brigade was: “brittle” in an excellently fuzzed, rancid way, but You’re Nothing is a heftier experience.” — Pitchfork [BEST NEW MUSIC]

“Even on their raw 2011 debut, Iceage knew how to sculpt the noise into songs, but You’re Nothing is a huge jump forward.” – Rolling Stone

“Iceage still thrills here, hurtling through tangled, fuzzed-out hard-core jams that rarely stretch past the three-minute mark. Yet Ronnenfelt and his band mates haven’t passed up the opportunity, so juicy on an anticipated follow-up, to deepen their sound.” — Los Angeles Times

“The band’s second exercise in the dark arts bulks up their sound without losing its ascetic ferocity”  — Entertainment Weekly

  1. Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment (it was super long)
    so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any suggestions for beginner blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
