Label: Dog Knights

THE LOSER is an 8 song album from New York's GOSPEL. Recorded by Kurt Ballou and mastered by Magnus Lindberg, it is the first official release from the band since 2005's acclaimed The Moon is a Dead World. Sonically, the record showcases Gospel's anomalous brand of psychedelic hardcore--now matured into something more emotionally complex and desperate sounding. Genre taxonomy proves null here and all reference points are fleeting; this is GOSPEL. Their singular sound is more powerful than ever.

Thematically, the album is about a broken quest for recovery; a surreal and impressionistic bad-trip through billiard halls, underpasses, and bus stations; a search for the home that may not exist. The Loser is a story told in subtext by an unreliable narrator. It is not not a musical. Fuck, it probably is. 

It’s a sheer testament to their raw talent and musicianship that they have returned in such an awe-inspiring way, and by way of doing so their legacy has been etched into music history forever.
