    PRETTIEST EYES

    Pools

    [engl] “Very pleased to be working with these boys… I first saw them ages ago at the Sattelite and they were cake-takers that night…now, they are stronger and weirder than ever. I couldn’t believe this new batch of tunes and their bananas-energy live show and, their fans are hard-core heads, just a soup of dance and mouths agog brutal, fractured, pogoing beats played by Pachy, also the singer, belching out vocal smoke rings in the laser light above the din they are flat out commands, militaristic in their delivery and yet catchy, like you like em Marcos, an extro-sensual bassist who climbs inside of your mind-clothes while grinding out aggressively greasy throbs and pulls and Paco, the keyboardist who at times plays reeling wailing lines that could be mistaken for a number of other instruments…and the hair on this dude I have a hard time remembering how nice his face is offstage, all you can see is a whip wigging out they are captivating, they are odd, they make strange and interesting choices…futuristic and yet drawn from the same sonic sludge that all mankind derives from they live and breathe early Los Angeles punk vibes while still innovating at every turn there is electricity in this sound they simply rule and what a pleasure to hear the album doesn’t stray far from what makes them just melt it in person recorded perfectly to harness the animal on a nice inanimate slab of plastic you can take home for fans of Screamers, Suicide, Chrome, and yes, a hint of a down unda Birthday Party”

    PRETTIEST EYES

    Vol 3

    [engl] Last year’s Pools having taken up a sizable chunk of our cold dark hearts, we were delighted to hear that LA post-industrial trio Prettiest Eyes have a new gang of crowd-stirrers. None too early, either; once you’ve become accustomed to their clanging synthetic orbit, it’s hard to find other tunes that truly scratch the same itch. Volume 3 bursts at the seams with chrome-dipped timbres and surprise sharp edges, alien klaxon-calls and wailing dissonance offsetting the ziplock’d grease of their insistent drum and bass grooves. Prettiest Eyes are one of the most exciting live bands going on right now, and Volume 3 catches them in fine fettle.

    PRETTY HURTS

    Expectations

    [engl] Cold, dark and icy post punk hits noisy, nervous and insanely driven punk. Disappointment, irritability, alienation, teen-angst, nightmares and hypnagogic hallucinations, packed on a 7". Cold and bleak, but bouncing in defiance, with sporadic tinges of fear. While other bands of their ilk go for a more sullen approach, PRETTY HURTS harnesses their aggression to power through each song like a well-oiled machine. There’s a sense of urgency and neurosis that’s ever-present throughout Escapement, which makes this one of the better EPs to surface this summer. If there was any EXPECTATION for this 7" PRETTY HURTS can answer with a shy, cold but defining YES! get this EP or listen to the boring other stuff out there...

    PRINCIP

    You Are Here

    [engl] "Princip’s debut LP translated from Hebrew - “You Are Here”, is what Dean Klein’s (vocalist & guitarist) managed to abrasively sum up as his personal take on modern existence, along with the frustration that creation and creativity may bring with them. Together with Sefi Akrish (bass) and Ben Tversky (drums), that forms a prominent, dancy yet sledgehammer pounding rhythm section - Princip conflates an honest outcome of their natural musicianship bound. Melding together boldly vocals in Hebrew, angular guitars, bits of shrieking saxophone and cathedral-like organs & synths is what Princip’s quirky mix of loosey, chaotic and rebelliously groovy post-punk consists of. 24 minutes within 12 tracks that lingers on with the unique high’s and low’s of the band that might make you realize that - You Are Here.

    PRISON AFFAIR / RESEARCH REACTOR CORPORATION

    Split

    [engl] A love affair between Australia and Spain - one for the real rockers out there. Those lovers truly can't cease to amaze. Highly enjoyable one-of-a-kind sounding stuff from these masterminds. Demento synth noise from the creepy depths of a dark basement. The energy, hooks, and rawness elevate this above also-ran status, so if you’re a fan of this sound, you have to love it. A wave of skrunky, Adderall-eyed eggpunk-worship. This Split EP is an impressive collection of tunes, and I’m looking forward to seeing what this rockers come up with next. Wrap your favorite body parts in tin foil, dye your eyebrows blue, and get ready to sweat out chemicals when you listen to this one.

    PRZEPYCH

    Regresarabas

    [engl] Although Wroclawian duo uses typical rock instruments and sound, they avoid referring to typical rock or post-rock structures; instead, guitars and drums as tools of composition owe a lot to syncretic Rock in Opposition scene, funk-hitting no wave, and post-punk that wished to turn its own limitations into unlimited space. Przepych is a response to these endeavors. Typical rock line-up instruments, enriched by samplers are handled by band members of the following formations: Kurws, Ukryte Zalety Systemu (UZS), Norymberga, Pustostany and others. Przepych is another one of many bands that rehearse at CRK Salka – a place and environment of musicians who associate themselves with Wroclaw-based DIY social-cultural center called CRK.

    PUBLIC BODY

    Ask me Later

    [engl] From the cradle to a 9-5 job, buried in unread emails and PMQ youtube alerts, tackling issues such as Question Time Bias and Workplace Etiquette. Public Body formed late 2018 with a clear aim to write the perfect soundtrack to whatever you do whilst procrastinating at your day job. 'Ask Me Later' “Labour-oppressive wellness initiatives; machinic lubricants. Half a century of unprocessed bitterness, constricted by social norms as corporate structures. The Program fails through successive firmware updates while, in the background, slideshow graphics show that rage tends towards infinity. The face of a destabilised workforce in a society that secretes symbolic concessions as a defence reflex against meaningful change. Your positive attitude is keeping us all in line.” Emil Mniszko ‘Table Manners’ "You are sitting in the lobby, a ghostly jingle drifts through the airwaves while a mute screen shows familiar suited men seated around a large circular table. The calendar says 2020, but that can’t be right. Memories of an information age fall away as the spectres of a forgotten future pass into you." Emil Mniszko

    PUBLIC BODY

    Flavour Of Labour

    [engl] Public Body’s brand new EP is a five track counting work of chaotic post punk. Flavour of Labour’ was released digitally as well as on 12” vinyl via Six Tonnes De Chair Records! Its title gives away what inspired the Brighton-based post punk group to write their latest release, ‘Flavour of Labour’ talks about different themes such as terrible jobs, financial struggles, and describes social observations. It is the to the point lyricism that had me hooked to Public Body’s sound and style, add some guitar licks, swinging synths and pounding drums and you’ve got a mix of punk, garage and math rock that is vigorous and thrilling! Their EP was recorded at Echo Zoo studios and opens with the eccentric ‘Formica’, we can hear the influences of bands such as FEET (who producer and guitarist Theo Verney previously worked with), Squid and Sports Team. Those influences are reflected in the spoken vocals and fast paced soundscapes consisting of weird elements and rambling guitars! Their sound is an organised mess, a chaotic blend of effects and noise, yet catchy and repetitive like a mantra which makes their songs, such as ‘Flavour of Labour’, so easy to get addicted to! When working forty-odd hours in shitty call centre jobs, it’s barely possible to feel good when you arrive home after work, which is what inspired vocalist and guitarist Seb Gilmore to write a song… Or ten. Previously released singles ‘Hard To Concentrate’ and ‘Reset My Password’ are a breath of fresh air, a spacious sound that is fast paced and listens like a double shot of caffeine without having the jitters afterwards. These guitar-driven punk rock tracks are exactly what we need after a long day of work, feeling heard and understood and no longer so alone in leading a shitty work life. The agitation comes to life in their carefully crafted sounds and soundscapes, about the inspiration behind ‘Reset My Password’ and the situation at the height of COVID Gilmore said: “Everyone was clapping for NHS staff and key workers, and that got me thinking what my place is in all this mess. I then logged onto my work computer and was advised by a popup that it was time to reset my password. So I wrote a song about how pointless and useless my job is to the world when everything felt like it was breaking and seemed apocalyptic.” The EP’s closing statement is single ‘Sunburnt’, a screeching and ferocious track most melodic of all and politically charged like none of the others. It is relentless, energetic and potentially my favourite of the EP. A great slice of Public Body, as well as all other singles on the EP which has clearly been created with the end product in mind. All five tracks work hand in hand and bring a complete picture of what goes on in Public Body’s personal, professional, and musical mind! Words by Laura Rosierse

    PUBLIC INTEREST

    Between

    [engl] This is utterly brilliant, amazing stuff - my ears are blessed. Nihilistic post punk jams with a generous serve of primitive electronics. The music is beyond this universe, the message is perfect for our times. The post and synth punk on the first public interest recording, hailing from Oakland is quite variable, e.g. Sometimes hanging out the cold synthwave sounds like another electrified variant of DIÄT and USELESS EATERS in a spacy abgroovemode. Or how would it sound like AUSMUTEANTS and PUFF if both bands took something seriously? To put it simply, what we’ve got here is something like an under-caffeinated Television Personalities, or a darker Wire who stumbled upon synth. Great synthpop songs delivered with just the right amount of damage. But just really vicious at times, too. I mean, these teeth are gleaming. Rolling down a hill in a garbage can. Each song is belted out with a short, sharp fit, with some synthesisers occasionally glistening out at the edges. The restraint is all the more fierce as it amplifies everything that's fucked about them. This is pure and damn good, futuristic Post-Punk. Warm synthesizer sounds meet minimal instrumentation that already reminds of a purified version of TOTAL CONTROL. Behind the mask and the project hides Chris from MARBLED EYE, which the sound alone suggests, with such a sensitivity for super-mature songwriting that would have been even ahead in the '80s, and especially now.

    QITSCH

    Everything Is Like Everything

    [engl] New band from Switzerland, including Mike (YC-CY, WALTER FROSCH) and Roman (DEADVERSE, LO FAT ORCHESTRA). The LP contains 10 songs. Some kind of really original sounding post-punkish Noise-Rock (or vice versa). Superficially it's a violently trashy and noisy sound, but behind that wall of noise are cool and infectious tunes. Yeah, awesome Noise-Rock, and not all like the title (same as always) suggests.

    RAKTA

    Falha Comum

    [engl] With a slight line up change in the drum department we see RAKTA tighten up their more tense, soundtrack natured developments alongside their more sparse and vulnerable elegance. They consistently manage to create a tripped out creep chamber with room to explore as the aura builds to nightmare crescendos juxtaposed with shaking silences. Simultaneously eerie and serene. With each new release we see more and more of what makes this group so essential in the canon of modern music.

    RANK/XEROX

    s/t

    Eine gewaltige Postpunk-Bestie - angepisst und gefährlich, ein echtes Biest was uns der Franz da angeschleppt hat. Düster und kaltschnäuzig kreischen die Gitarren und wummern die Basslines während die Drums monoton den Beat stampfen und wir im Takt dazu angeschrien werden. Da kann man locker Parallelen zu Estranged, The Mob, Crisis ziehen, die erreichen allerdings nie das Agressivitäts-Niveau dieser Platte, das man eher im Hardcore vermuten würde. Am ehesten kommen da vielleicht Rudimentary Peni ran, deren Sound sich aber doch deutlich unterscheidet. Ganz großes Höllenfeuer und zu recht nach zwei Jahren nun auch endlich im europäischen Raum verfügbar.

    Servants In Heaven

    [engl] On their first release since 2017, the elusive RANK/XEROX treat us to two delightfully dreary pop tunes that present a Factory/4AD gloom with an icy silver lining. There is hope in the notes but what lingers most is a dystopian trod through life on Earth in 2019. The resiliency of humanity is inspiring but will that be enough to keep us all going? Probably not. The fatal flaw of humanity is, well, that it is human at its core. Let's dance? 350 black and 150 transparent green vinyl records housed in a 12pt reverse board glue pocket sleeve with an 11x17 poster and download card included. Recorded by the band. Mixed by Mikey Young. Mastered by Joe Carra. Art by Kevin McCarthy.

    ROSENGARTEN

    Blut & Liebe

    Rosengarten aus Salzwedel, waren eine der bekanntesten DDR Post-Punk- und Dark-Wave-Bands. Beeinflusst von Bands wie Bauhaus, Joy Division und The Cure, sorgten ihre kompromisslosen und düsteren Songs, für beachtlichen Nachhall in der Szene und die selbstveröffentlichten Kassettenaufnahmen verbreiteten sich über die landesweiten Kanäle. Bis heute gilt der Beitrag "Bessere Zeiten" auf dem ersten Parocktikum-Sampler als ein Klassiker, der DDR-Undergroundmusik. Das Rundling-Label hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, das Vermächtnis dieser wichtigen Band, Stück für Stück auf Vinyl veröffentlichen. Den Anfang macht das 1987er Debüt-Tape "Blut und Liebe. Die Band wählte dafür die besten Songs aus. Die Restauration und das Mastering übernahm wieder Schotte.

    [engl] Berlin, you never-ending source of punk bands that don't sound like any other "just another synth and guitars band" that has ever existed and come across as tight as if they had at least three four Lenze in the constellation in the first year Humpback. Now Rouge with their first EP and the members simply make potential name dropping of their other bands superfluous. Immediate, new and organic. Rhythmically surfed guitars, coquettish synthesizer, fixed drums, melodic and playful (lead) bass and a voice that can pull out all the stops from calmly narrative, needy to squeaky hoarse indignation, form the cornerstones of your new favorite band.
