Beast Rest Forth Mouth: Remixed

'In the great American spirit of selling you something twice, Brooklyn-based post-cool quartet Bear In Heaven - hot off last year's critical acclaim of their full-length Beast Rest Forth Mouth - have gone ahead and presupposed their status as mainstay authorities and curated a track-by-track remix version of that aforementioned record. Among other things, this quasi-new release, which is to be packaged alongside the original and released as a "double album," is currently affording me the opportunity to use words like "aforementioned," "presupposed," and "quasi" with haughty-yet-irreproachable contextual precision. Thank you, Bear in Heaven.' - Tiny Mix Tapes

The remix CD features remixes from The Field, High Places, Justin K. Broadrick (Jesu), The Hundred in the Hands, Studio, Twin Shadow and more! Within four walls in Brooklyn, Jon Philpot, Adam Wills, Sadek Bazaara and Joe Stickney have mined the democracy of their collaboration, plus the endless hours of stream-of-consciousness recorded documentation of rehearsals over the past year to conceive the crystalline form of Beast Rest Forth Mouth, their second album, their exaltation. Pitchfork called their first album "a true cohesive work in an era when the album-as-art form appears to be slowly dying" and The Onion found it "a powerful, functional mix of This Heat, '70's soft rock, early Genesis, and oddly, later Pink Floyd."
