A
newly formed project made up of members from Brisbane punk bands Fires Of Waco,
To The North, Epithets, Waiting Room and Shakes. Don’t know if they play this
stuff live yet, but the music they’re making on record is definitely worth the
mention.
Everything about this EP shows
how the coming together of separate parts makes the most interesting music. Its
melodic, but moody, relatable but disparate.
The production of Mark Perry and the greatness of the band has accomplished
making music with the mood of sombre post-punk at its heart. Everything has sense, like everything played
on tape is there only because it has to be.
The minimalist guitar of Ryan Sim underpins the melancholic and emotional lyrics of Steven Millar Scott ring
through. The bass of Cameron Gillard and drums of Simon Reynolds provide a
solid underlying rhythm that carries the melodies and notes to a far stronger
place. Hope these guys don’t make this project a once off- because
their chemistry in creation is obvious, otherwise these songs would not sound
as strong as some of these tracks do.
