I was scared they wouldn't still be as good. I was fearing for no reason.

[@user-rm9zx7ln9i]

Do you hear and see this? You should be scared. Not about their quality, about...us, I guess?

[@lolabow5421]

cocksure. Moffat always aims to please. gush

[@CashMyCheque]

They're better.

[@obelix703]

This is what a lot of folks in the 80’s & 90’s wanted to achieve, but failed miserably. All hail Arab Strap!

[@ded6142]

The new album is shaping up to be the best yet

[@sedith40]

True masters at the peak of their creativity - Arab Strap still pushing all the right buttons 2021 - thak you

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

But "she" that hides a dark soul, and foul thoughts. Benighted walks under the mid-day Sun; Herself is her own dungeon. Milton 1634

[@willshogren1987]

I know their early stuff was extremely good but i can't help but think this is how it's supposed to sound. This is the apotheosis.

[@eddyhertens9026]

Came here after seeing “Karen Pirie” : being 56 today makes me feel 18 again; really surprised how the music gets under my skin!

[@martinmccleary737]

Absolutely magnificent The return of Arab Strap and the absolute quality of this, turning and Compersion has been such an unexpected delight The album cannot come quick enough

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

Slowcore, Alternative/Indie, Neofolk, Post-folk music.

[@lolabow5421]

Brilliant vid for a brilliant song by a brilliant band x

Wonderful song: rhythm, melody, all wonderful.

So great after all these years...i bought and just received the album...a new masterpiece...

That same old devil is back again. What a tune and what a lyric. Sumer is icumen in...

[@chunkynipples3791]

Awesome. So dark ! I love it.

[@scottmcmahon86]

Jeezo, this is grim AF lyrically even by Arab Strap standards, but the tune itself is so utterly danceable..

[@KL-zg7lu]

It's the story of a predator who's created a life of ruin for himself. For some reason though, that guy believes it's everyone else's fault. None of us made you gay for pay at the bar

[@marilenav2591]

Video + song are such a good match 🖤

[@alejandrosierra792]

A new classic!

Not exactly the uplifting romp i'd expect from Arab strap

???? I think you haven't messed up

[@galetinm]

I may like this even better.

[@ValJesternity]

@@sedith40 you may have miss the joke, mate

[@ursaminorjim]

Excellent! And the video, Jesus. Doubly appropriate as the song itself kinda smells like the inside of a plastic Halloween mask after a night of Trick or Treating, and I've now got a slit on the tip of my tongue.

[@ursaminorjim]

Also - Aidan? You may wanna slip into some plastic gloves before opening your mail. Just a suggestion.

[@guillermosantamarinalagune6184]

Halloween?... La tragedia de seres humanos desesperados te parece un espectáculo festivo?

[@ursaminorjim]

@@guillermosantamarinalagune6184 It's a music video. A piece of entertainment. Yes, it's horrifying but it's not _real._ Besides, I was comparing the feeling of the song to my memories of Halloween, not the video itself.

[@guillermosantamarinalagune6184]

@@ursaminorjim ok, i'm happy it amuses you. Probably your life is economically and morally exented, or plainly safe out of these family tragedies. I know well Art could be sublime, hurting, not just through entertaining. And I sincerely hope Aidan Moffat is now aware of that, while reaching the succesfull level of a healthy, wealthy and joyful social membership.

[@ursaminorjim]

@@guillermosantamarinalagune6184 We all experience art in different ways, but I think we can all recognize that there are different layers to explore in a song (especially one this excellent). If I respond differently than you, it doesn't take anything away from your experience of it. And it's an equally valid response - there's no one way to enjoy something. But don't make assumptions about my life, please - you don't know me, you don't know my experiences.

[@tommycarson1493]

This is incredible. Found these guys via the goth subreddit. Anyone have suggestions for similar artists doing incredible music like this in 2021? Thanks and 93 to all

[@bushuaaaa]

Fucking great tune

[@TheG21145]

Fuck me thats a good video !!!

[@mattwiddowson355]

Starts off a bit like Run to You by Bryan Adams

[@MoogerTuber]

Ryan Adams is on the way to your house.

[@shaycostello888]

Was at a Malky show in Toon maybe around summer 09 and Malky did a brief bit of Run to You and talked about it.

[@martinmccleary737]

Remember that show - at Cluny he loves Pat Benetar too definitely that influence in opening riff

[@davidgrahamscott]

I look like that guy holding the lead.

[@j-will55williams83]

What does the refrain remind me of?

[@Kircadag]

I also know it from something….

[@clangingchimes]

It's Aidan behind the mask...

[@franktielemans6624]

Sounds a lot like She wants revenge.

[@CalumnMcAulay]

I can't say I was too keen on this - I preferred their earlier work.

[@andrewhime7701]

Strap fan from the beginning... you might need to try again, this is stunning.
