What the Critics Say
While the full-length debut Bastro Diablo Guapo found David Grubbs' post-Squirrel Bait project mining Chicago-styled noise thrash, Sing the Troubled Beast offers the first hints of the fractured melodicism he would embrace with his next group, Gastr del Sol. Tempering his extremist nature with actual hooks ("Demons Begone," "Krakow, Illinois") and subtle guitar textures (the mournful "Tobacco in the Sink, "), Grubbs creates music that is compact and expressive, although he brings back the noise on cuts like "The Sifter." ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
