Synopsis

Album Description

Not A Food is the fifth full length release by Cheer-Accident and their first on Pravda Records. Produced by noted Chicago producer Steve Albini, the result is a tight and relentless sonic attack with traces of melancholia and dementia. Cheer-Accident remains one of Chicago's most challenging and interesting bands as dense and dissonant guitars intertwine with grinding drums, bass grooves, noise segments, rythmic patterns and melody. A truly adventurous release by a vital band.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Cheer-Accident is a phenomenal ensemble. NOT A FOOD provides a glimpse into the mindset of the band, though the album is not a fair representation of the myriad modes employed throughout their entire body of work. The album is probably best characterized as progressive math-rock metal. While this is a fair characterization, it is not a complete one. For those interested in hearing the band and having a primary preference for post-hardcore math-rock music, this is probably as good a place to start as any. For those having primary prog, pop, or avant-garde preferences, I recommend BABIES SHOULDN'T SMOKE, THE WHY ALBUM, and ENDURING THE AMERICAN DREAM, respectively."
