LUXURY APARTMENTS: Wire
As with fire in the ass, they play a teasing punk-banger that follows their thread and if you haven’t passed out, you’ll follow it too, because this is good. LUXURY APARTMENTS – Wire
GHLOW: Golden
The accelerating sense that an evocative explosion is in the offing is palpable and though it may never come, it’s golden enough. GHLOW – Golden
D’ARCY AND THE BLOODY SHOW: Hollywood Forever
As punky post-punk played forwards into a Californian backlight after the sunset, or as a kiss in the graveyard worth waiting for, just like the music. D’ARCY AND THE BLOODY SHOW – Hollywood Forever
LAST WALTZON: I Can’t Cook
Good drum intro and then it goes on with nice punk that is perfect to listen to when you cook without knowing how, or spend time with someone who can… LAST WALTZON – I Can’t Cook
SUO: Don’t Catch Me
Good news in the form of a frenetic fuzzpunk banger that seems unstoppable and why would you stop it? It’s pure enjoyment from the start, don’t you think? SUO – Don’t Catch Me
GOUTLAW: Goutlaw
Destructively slow-chewing blues rock, blackened and dirty like few, with a dark desperate voice at the mic, and if you ask me, it’s absolutely gorgeous. GOUTLAW – Lay My Head Down
GGGREMLINNN: Same Fate/Bliss
With frenetic energy and persistent sound, they make one restless enough to reluctantly or not shake loose on a floor where everyone’s fate is the same. GGGREMLINNN – Same Fate
SHADOW SHOW: Mystic Spiral
Garage-psychedelic pop with a retro feeling that you like to take a turn to and if you don’t have dance moves, moving in spirals works perfectly. SHADOW SHOW – Mystic Spiral
TELEFORME: Concrete Living
Dramatic post-punk that paints a dark picture for the ear perfect for your dancing shadow to dubiously obscure the unvarnished positions of others. TELEFORME – For A Man
LOTHARIO: Hogtied/King Rat
Crackling punk with sparks, attitude, and swinging intensity that is hard to resist, but you don’t want that because it’s wonderful. LOTHARIO – King Rat
