Over three solo albums, Daniel Blumberg has written many broken songs, but with his fourth he has destroyed his songwriting itself. »GUT« is a literally visceral album on which the music itself becomes a foreign body. Blumberg still sings his choruses while it drones and rattles in the background. But he does so almost dutifully, especially when he reminds himself of his actual job near the end of the record: »Daniel, keep on singing!«. Whether he will do that or not, we’ll figure out on the next record. Until then, »GUT« remains his most radical album.
