HEALTH! HEALTH! They use capital letters! I've always had my suspicions about HEALTH, that underneath their Boredoms-inspired noise rock was a bit of an empty, poser-ish void, but their LP had enough good moments for me to remain undecided. Plus they're pretty ace live. So now their new single is here and it's pushed me back further towards the 'oh dear' camp, 'Die Slow' being a vague 4/4 noise rock dancefloor stomper that doesn't do too much at all. Just alright really.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

· On ‘Die Slow’ the calculated noise Health are
known for is fused with a four to the floor dance
anthem.
· It’s by far the most gratifying song the band has
ever written, and is complimented beautifully by
a killer Pictureplane remix.
· A much-loved remix record and two years of
relentless touring with the likes of Nine Inch
Nails, Crystal Castles and Of Montreal has
built an ungodly amount of anticipation for new
Health music, and they deliver.
· “Health make extremely pleasant noise music” –
Vice.
· “It’s a challenging, loud vision of rock yes, but it’s
not nearly as tough as it at first seems” - NME.
