"Crunchy amp noise and ricocheting drum shrapnel form black holes that seem to swallow the surrounding air." - THE WIRE Perhaps appropriately, Follow This House was recorded following a European tour in a state of profound limbic haze and completed during the unforgettable heat wave of July 2006. These facts make a whole lot of sense since Follow This House sounds like your entire record collection melting in the trunks of a hundred junkyard cars on a hazy, steamy, sweltering hot summer afternoon. Follow This House is a companion piece to Mouthus' 2005 full-length for Important Records titled The Long Salt. Picking up right where The Long Salt left off, Follow This House is chock-full of manic bad mood energy, crunching resin-soaked jams, and hundred-year-old instrumentation emerging from the soggy mire only to be slowly pushed back in by poison clouds of delayed-out vocal groan. Mouthus are on a stated mission to incorporate new sounds and new instrumentation into their recordings. Never repeating itself, Follow This House is less fractured and more minimal, embracing the Mouthus sludgefest like a settling foundation.
