Silver Kaiju by Soft-Bodied Humans x Silver Pyre

Following up the surprise critical hit that was Soft-Bodied Humans’ debut EP - Kaiju Kitala, a collaboration with Ugandan MC Swordman Kitala - is the next instalment in a planned series.

Like Kaiju Kitala, the new EP, Silver Kaiju - a collaboration with art-pop auteur Silver Pyre – use samples from vintage Japanese monster movies as the building blocks of a sort of abrasive, psychedelic not-quite grime.

Silver Pyre sounds like a post-punk seer, propelled by sub-bass explosions and riding crests of synths, cruising through a cosmos of his own imagination and reporting in detail on the myriad truths he’s uncovered there.

In this universe, nothing moves quite like it’s supposed to. Monsters might be real. They might be us.
