Offering a brief glimpse into the ghoulish hedonism that would characterize the Knife’s later output, “You Make Me Like Charity” devolves from cheeky electro-pop into seething vocoder-afflicted anxiety. The traumatized, repetitive mantra of its chorus continues to resonate long after the jubilant Eurodisco of Deep Cutshas concluded.
Most of the Knife’s self-titled debut can be generously described as well-behaved in comparison to its unhinged offspring. With the understated “I Just Had to Die,” Andersson attains a level of vocal poignancy she would again exhibit years later on her mesmerizing Fever Rayalbum, shining a nostalgic shade of optimism on a song that chronicles both ...
The Knife unleashes their own brand of conversion therapy with “Networking,” a menacing barrage of quivering beats and gruesome taunts, brutally pummeling the listener for almost seven minutes. These are the unbridled sounds of Andersson and Dreijer at their most thoroughly indoctrinating.
The Knife takes full advantage of the hazy industrial soundscape that begins “The Captain,” baiting the listener into calm sanctuary after Silent Shout’s harrowing opener. Yet, halfway through, as Andersson’s vocals crawl out from beneath the drone like some spectral parade, we’re jolted from the warmth of our serene stupor into icy discombobulatio...
Written in collaboration with Emily Roysdon and Light Asylum’s Shannon Funchess, the house-inspired “Stay Out Here” is a freakish, shape-shifting bullet train, threatening to short-circuit and burst into flames at any moment while never losing sight of its destination: the apocalyptic storm just over the horizon.
Pre-2006, very little in the Knife’s oeuvre could have prepared one for “We Share Our Mothers’ Health,” a garish, jack-in-the-box of synthy goth-pop. Throughout Silent Shout, Andersson’s vocals lean heavily on playful, obscured mystique, and nowhere is that more apparent than during this song’s bouncy, hellraising chorus. A spellbinding bit of danc...
Earlier this year, the Knife provided music for the antinational cabaret Europa Europa, a movement focusing on the human-rights injustices committed by Sweden and the European Union. An intoxicating pastiche of the duo’s sensibilities over the past decade, the sounds of “För Alla Namn Vi Inte Får Använda” (translated as “For all the names we cannot...
By the mid-aughts, the Knife had grown increasingly disinterested in keeping up traditional human appearances in public, updating their presence through a variety of masks, cloaks, and, in one case, graphic face-melting makeup. This rejection of conventional imagery extended to the lurid but elegant “Marble House,” a hypnotic duet of sweeping, phan...
Relentless kettledrums anchor a 10-minute orchestral nightmare of strings and horns layered atop Andersson’s witchy serenade of omnipresent hisses. Punctuated by one of the Knife’s more shout-along choruses (“What a difference/A little difference would make!” proclaims Andersson in a confounding though inspired nod to Fugazi’s “Blueprint,” followin...
One of the more striking aspects of Shaking the Habitual’s opening track is how often Dreijer chooses to subvert traditional melody in favor of dissonant, polyrhythmic excess. All of the elements within this kaleidoscopic swirl of steel drums, wood blocks, and percolating synths serve a common purpose: the band making good from the get-go on their ...
