The era of fish narc has dawned cool fire and warm passion and bad af. Decades in the making, fruiting body [KLP295] is fish narc’s third solo album in as many years. A high-security prism of emotional drive bys and jam beats that gel. Poptones from beyond the bedroom laptop underground. fish narc’s hybridizing of post punk with modern sound packs a well-seasoned punch to the contemporary palette. Production on this album by keyblayde808 only makes it all the more epic. A collaboration with 8485 “heart filled with rage” has us all in a tizzy, a post-traumatic love anthem. fruiting body is thirteen songs good. The breaking news: fruiting body has been melded into a long playing (LP) phonograph record and cassette tape from K, available wherever you spike the jive.
