New York’s Retail Drugs: “The most immediate factor for the album is that everything is recorded hot, approximately at the temperature of the sun. The bass clips and bleeds into frequencies around it. The hi-hats crinkle with distortion. Brooks’ voice howls like a PA system blaring a recording being fed into a live mic. Large parts of it are crawling chaos, digital synths layered on themselves and feeding back; volume knobs knocked to the top of the board and stuck there with gum. The effect, specifically and especially with regard to the radiation-damaged monster disco of “Tru Luv,” is like listening to an artifact originally recorded on some battered Compaq circa 2003, using a cheap mic and a pirated DAW.” –spectrumculture.comCredit Card are kinda like a more pissed off Suicide got really into industrialThe Hum is the newest project from just a guy being a dude named Nips, featuring a carousel of top local talent on their ever changing rosterSulk is a shoegaze band
