Louiseville, Kentucky group Shrudd has been around for a couple years already but only really started to strike creative gold with last year’s Bizarro and Microbiome EP’s, the former dealing with more hardcore-adjacent sounds while the latter dabbled in a kinda familiar garage-/synth punk territory, an aesthetic that also dominates their newest EP on which they considerably elevate the weirdness factor, veering into more of a pronounced eggpunk direction evoking the likes of Prison Affair, Victor, Set-Top Box or Paulo Vicious in equal measure to contemporary synth-/electro punk acts รก la Isotope Soap, Freak Genes, Spyroids and Powerplant.
