Every now and then a record comes along that feels weirdly anachronistic in a perfectly pleasant way and so does this record assembled from the recorded remains of some brief 2023 one-off project, made up of folks from the Science Man / Nervous Tick orbit, that indeed kinda sounds like a perfect middle ground between the noise rock- and postcore-infused drum machine punk both groups were dabbling with in their early 2000s eras. Just a couple years later, these tunes already make you realize just how much the musical backdrop has already shifted since then and what a radical evolution especially Science Man - but also Nervous Tick to a lesser extent - have gone through, but listening to this now, you can't help but think that damn, that shit is still really fucking neat.
