BROOKLYN—Parts & Labor, the beloved noise-rock outfit, announced their first new album in 15 years. The record is titled Set Of All Sets. It is a double album. Fans have waited a long time for this new music. The band promised a true sonic assault. They last released music in 2011. Their farewell show was in 2012. This new album marks a significant return. Set Of All Sets will be their magnum opus.
The Return Of The Noise
The band’s reunion was reportedly inspired by a shared disillusionment with silence. “We were just tired of not being loud enough,” stated lead screamer Bartholomew ‘Barty’ Fuzz. He is the band’s self-proclaimed “Chief Auditory Agitator.” He also added, “This album is like a thousand car alarms going off in your brain. But, like, in a good way.” Many are anticipating the sheer volume of Set Of All Sets.
Parts & Labor are known for their chaotic live shows. Their music often features abrasive guitar riffs. It also includes relentless drumming. Song titles often reflect their abstract lyrical themes. Early reports suggest Set Of All Sets will continue this trend. One track is reportedly titled “Existential Dread Broadcast via Feedback Loop.” Another is “My Neighbor’s Dog Barks Only At My Soul.” The band aims to capture peak sonic chaos.
A Tour Of Sonic Terror
The group also announced a reunion tour. The tour will support Set Of All Sets. Details are scarce. However, they promised “an immersive auditory experience.” “We want people to leave our shows with ringing ears and existential clarity,” said keyboardist Brenda ‘Static’ McAllister. She is the band’s “Minister of Harmonic Discord.” Fans are encouraged to bring earplugs. Or perhaps a helmet. The band plans to play every song twice. Back-to-back. This should be quite the experience.
The band’s last album, Constant Future, was released in 2011. Its critical reception was mixed. Some praised its experimental nature. Others found it unlistenable. Parts & Labor seem unfazed by past criticisms. They appear dedicated to their unique sound. The band insists this new material is their most challenging yet. They hope to push the boundaries of noise rock further. Set Of All Sets is poised to be a definitive statement. It’s a testament to their enduring weirdness.
At press time, fans were reportedly already forming a queue outside the venue. They were also practicing their best vacant stares. Many were seen wearing industrial-grade earmuffs. They seemed ready for the sonic onslaught.
