puenktlich zu sharon jones diesj?hrigem geburtstag wird die band ihren vierten longplayer >i learned the hard way< auf dem unabhaengigen brooklyner label daptone records veroeffentlichen. das album ist ein wichtiger schritt nach vorne f?r die band, die nahezu im alleingang die r?ckkehr von soul zu (s)einem traditionelleren sound losgetreten hat.

limited edition picture disc. definitely designed to intimidate those weak of will, scare tactics will also dominate any dancefloor you care to drop it on. bruising beats and a twistedly belligerent bassline combine to bully the crap out of your ears in c4cs typically ruthlessly efficient style. >born dead< sounding like the score for some sort of dystopian future where machines rule man, born dead is a foreboding, offbeat, synthetic and sinister tune. samples swirl around your head while the bassline rises from the metallic mire to grab at your feet. future filth indeed.
