Album Notes & Community Reviews
Captured live during the 'From the Basement' sessions for 'The King of Limbs', this double A-side presents two tracks initially left off the studio album. 'The Daily Mail' transforms from a brooding piano lament into a fierce, brass-heavy crescendo aimed at right-wing media outlets. 'Staircase' relies on intricate, syncopated rhythms, utilizing a second drummer to build a tense, hypnotic groove.
