Query: Uncomfortable and unpleasant

Creepy, weird, disorderly, jarring, spiky: Join Hands is difficult to listen to and utterly fantastic. The tracks sound splintered, like parodies of what we think of as a "song," and yet at the same time are strangely appealing and tuneful. This internal contradiction seemed to fuel a lot of the Banshees' work, and Join Hands embodies it over the course of the album, essentially falling apart as the tracks progress, with songs like "Oh Mein Papa" and "The Lord's Prayer" disintegrating the idea of "music" entirely. And yet, like all the other Banshees' work, it's also quite enjoyable. This really is a work of art, very smart stuff.
