Bleep

Malaise suggests a feeling of can’t-quote-put-a-finger-on-it unease that’s almost like a fog. You wade, hands and fingers out in case a figure flits by. It’s this feeling that haunts Australia-by-Berlin post-punk heads DIÄT’s Positive Disintegration. Acting as a companion piece — or dark heart — to their 2015 debut Positive Energy, their pained second release kicks back at the drudgery of a life unobserved the only way they know how.
