about

Wandering away from their usual rock-centric approach to psychedelia, Atsuko Chiba present the Quick Infant Guilt double single, a scorching experimental rap diptych to be released on August 20 via Mothland. Parts effect-heavy synthesizers, trafficked string instruments, tightly sampled drum backbeats and electronic whirrings of unknown origins, this represents the band’s first true venture into alternative hip hop to this date. Recorded by Matthew Cerantola at Room 11, and put into images by subversive artists Rodrigo Sergio and Phil Osborne, this crafty sonic oddity should definitely please fans of MF Doom, Run The Jewels or Madlib, while also finding a niche with experimental rock melomaniacs.

lyrics

I think you get enough
I think you get enough
I think you get enough
I think I’m feeling tough

I boxed it often
Awfully confiscated
Solace
Coffins locked
And tightly stored
Indite
The stories of the mind
Exciting the stories
Of the time
And I be boiling all the while
And I be trolling all the time
Slightly polarizing
Holding hives and mines alike
Minding molds incline the style
Ignite despite this byte
Of memory is telling me
It’s over right?
A four step plan
Another function
To fuck shit
It fluxes
Hoarding harmony
You’re so seductive
But I deducted
The break is greater
Than the wait
The weight is bigger than the stakes
And I'll be pulling all the stops
When the shot clock lock
Yes it’s awful
Let’s get it on

As the microbe feeds
This mass machine
Carbon tiled scabs
Manufactured
Spreads this
Glimpse of dreams
Bleeds its
Tantrum feeds
Its grip
And keeps tight
It’s lean
Hovers like
Like a wish
Made through the night
And I fell soft
When the killing
Was the kids
Was the will
Was the spirit
Crushed
Shit did you get enough?
Uhh!

I think you get enough
I think you get enough
I think I’m feeling tough

Woke up this morning
I feel it growing all the time
All the time
Give up this moment
My fear is growing
All the time
All the time

Woke up this morning
I feel it growing all the time
All the time
Give up this moment
My fear is growing
All the time
All the time

Woke up this morning
This morning

Atsuko Chiba Montréal, Québec

Montreal’s Atsuko Chiba venturesomely crosses genre-defining borders with a cohesive and hypnotic blend of post-rock, progressive rock, and krautrock, weaving together a rich sonic tapestry that subverts through offbeat songwriting. The psychedelic armada is back with Water, It Feels Like It’s Growing (January 20th, 2023), unearthing a fierce collection of droney, yet bombastic compositions. ... more
