L'un des skeuds qui nous aura aussi bien marqués cette année a été ce "Visions of Bodies Being Burned" des Clipping, tribute aux films d'horreur dans une Amérique en pleine déliquescence à tant de niveaux.
Le gang de LA assène toujours son hip hop noise de sonorités indus et anxiogènes, pour notre plus grand plaisir, et certaines plages font plus que mouche à nos oreilles, de “Say the name” à “ ‘96 Neve Campbell” en passant par “Body for the Pile”, sans parler même du tube passé en boucle à l'appart', ce “Check The Lock” ravageur.
Le seul reproche qu'on peut leur faire peut-être est de ne pas encore avoir opté pour un 100% killer songs album, avec quelques morceaux faisant parfois office de remplissage sur fond de contextualisation ou d'ambiance, mais c'est aussi le concept de ce genre de disques, alors on doit aussi jouer le jeu
