WET MAN: Swimming With Sharks
When the post-punk swims up to the synth-pop and makes a joint attempt to beat the sharks together, you can’t help but bow and thank you for the show. WET MAN – Swimming With Sharks
THE NATIVE CATS: Small Town Cop Override
With nice swaying vocals in an alternative punk piece, I fall in love and ready to move as small-town life looms as if I’ve seen the future through my ears… THE NATIVE CATS – Small Town Cop Override
PLATTENBAU: Net Prophet
Post-punk punk with death on its heels and ghostly synth in the background becomes so close to genius that you almost have to dance until the dawn rises. PLATTENBAU – AR-15
FAT DOG: King Of The Slugs
Monotonous music with manic precision and changing tempo. At times an eerie snail’s pace before picking up the pace and shaking our heads to total rapture. FAT DOG – King Of The Slugs
TUBE ALLOYS: Magnetic Point
With punk hammering drums and vocals about apathy, they’re ready to strike and it’s only a matter of time until they drum in the message and you’re a fan. TUBE ALLOYS – Apathy
LOVE DID THIS: Dog Or The Bone
A slightly odd piece that, with fairly small means, makes my legs jerk along in the pop swing and dance a little embarrassed with the dog in a dark corner. LOVE DID THIS, CHRISTIAN RAMIREZ: Dog Or The Bone
BLACK MEKON: Buhlak Me Kong
Cruel swamp blues meeting dirty noises in a back alley where cowards only go with a gun to the temple is not wrong as long as the loud feedback swings. BLACK MEKON – Buhlak Me Kong
EGYPTIAN BLUE: Skin
In the dissatisfaction with oneself and the events of life, an odd pop piece is played and a desire to be in someone else’s shoes arises while I dig. Shaking. EGYPTIAN BLUE – Skin
VERSING: Tape II
I’ve seen the light, but it’s through post-punk ears in the twilight of fog that you hear the nuances that accompany the backlight I’m for. VERSING – Diamond Light
HOTWAX – Drop
Delicious energetic alternative punk that doesn’t apologize gets your brain spinning so I’m not sure if it’ll ever be the same again, but I like the feeling. HOTWAX – Drop
