"Known for the monolithic force of their music and their inventive production techniques, The Body's albums are benchmarks in the expansion and evolution of heavy music. Tightly packed with deceptively nuanced arrangements and exhilarating, challenging distortion, their compositions are possessed of an unmistakably singular sound. The Crying Out of Things is no exception; a culmination of all that The Body have done before, highlighting their mastery of dynamic and monumental music that pushes toward the unmistakable sound of oblivion. The Body have produced a wealth of groundbreaking collaborations with the likes of Full of Hell, Thou, Uniform, BIG|BRAVE, OAA, and Dis Fig. The duo's benchmark albums have, over the past two decades, changed the perceptions and directions of heavy music. The Crying Out of Things' embrace of noise is a comprehensive display of the multitude of expressions possible with abrasive sound, a skill that The Body have pioneered and refined. 'I think for us the key to the way we use noise is, it's not the only element,' says Buford. 'You've gotta really listen if you're into noise. But it also has to have dynamics. Where, say, BIG|BRAVE (who have a similar ethos) expresses it in this more intellectual, minimalist way, The Body comes from an instinctual, maximalist way. We're trying to cover it ALL.' The Body stand alone in their ability to connect disparate influences and collaborators into a wholly original, potent and singular work. Alongside producer/engineer Seth Manchester, the duo's voracious and omnivorous musical appetites have pushed the studio as an instrument into new avenues to conjure profound feelings from the music. The Crying Out of Things cements The Body's place as a leader of heavy new music, their boundless creativity, their defining ability to convey anguish, created with a visceral clarity to devastating impact."
"The results are harsh but exhilarating, loud enough to make you worry about your speakers and anguished enough to make you worry about your sanity." --Pitchfork
"Whether it's a sludge-metal lope or a near-techno pulse, this truly awesome album's sense of rhythm is perhaps its note of hope, suggesting a centre that just might hold even as things fall apart." --The Guardian
"The Body present the most uncomprimising result of their researches into the combination of harsh noise and extreme metal to date." --The Quietus
"Ten times more extreme." --The Wire, Cover feature
