about

In these 10 songs we find themes of existentialism, love and everyday life delivered to us in an updated, but still signature balans multi-genre fashion and sound. The sharp punchy drums mold with playful yet aggressive basslines to form minimalist surfaces through which siren-like vocals lure you underground, where their message, sometimes screaming into your ear and other times caressing it, echoes the deepest.

Their newest record seems more aggressive and clear-cut, however the band yet again successfully engraved the album with their typical outsider charisma. Therefore, like in previous works, the trio’s energy provides a very distinct as well as unparalleled bunkerpop/art-punk presence and feel.
