LISTEN HERE & HERE; 7″ OUT NOV. 19TH ON MATADOR & ESCHO
FINAL 2013 U.S. TOUR IN SUPPORT OF YOU’RE NOTHING KICKS OFF NEXT WEEK
“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]
You’re Nothing, the sophomore album by Iceage released earlier this year on Matador Records, proved the Danish group’s growth and strength as songwriters. As described by the New York Times, Iceage “only improved on its formula of turbulent and disaffected poetry . . . reaching toward new ambitions.” Knowing what they’re capable of in creating their own material, check out what they can do with that of other’s via their covers ofSinead O’Connor’s “Jackie” and Bahumutsi Drama Group’s “To The Comrades.” ComeNovember 19th, both of these songs will be available for purchase as a physical and digital 7″. Additionally, Matador will release a digital-only deluxe version of You’re Nothingfeaturing the album, covers and 1 b-side. In the meantime, those in NYC and select cities on the west coast, be sure to check out Iceage live next week as they play their final U.S. shows of 2013 in support of You’re Nothing.

“You’re Nothing turns everything up – it’s smarter, faster, catchier” — SPIN
“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
“a testament to Iceage’s skill that it’s worth coming back to over and over” — The FADER
