O-D-EX – Breaker
Following their perfectly appetizing (and as far as i can make out, completely vanished off the face of the internet by now) Black Box EP in 2022, we get this group’s debut full-length courtesey of Dirtnap Records and this time around, there’s actually some tangible background info available. No wonder these folks sounded familiar the first time around, since we’re dealing with a duo consisting of US garage punk royalty Mark Ryan (most notably of Radioactivity, Mind Spiders and Marked Men) and Micah Why, whose previous bands i don’t think i’ve ever come across. Their minimalist synth punk certainly has retained some of that Mind Spiders vibe although this shit is a lot darker, more stripped-down and abrasive, having a certain oldschool vibe to it wich echoes of Minimal Man, Nervous Gender, Screamers, Units or Visitors but you might just as well compare them to more recent phenomena like Powerplant, Pow!, Spyroids or a somewhat less spikey version of Lost Packages crossbred with the digital insanity of Nubot555, the more minimalist moments of Digital Leather.
Album-Stream →Scud – Car
Songs about motor vehicles aren’t quite as ubiquitous as they once were and i’m just gonna say say deservedly so because honestly, that ancient, most wasteful mode of personal transportation can’t be phased out soon enough and the future clearly belongs to all varieties of bikes and trains. But here we go, it’s an unlikely new EP made up of nothing but carpunk tunes. Musically the thing slaps though, their weird and whimsical mix of art- and garage punk being of similar character to household names such as Vexx, Cel Ray, Warm Bodies, Warp or Fugitive Bubble.
Album-Stream →Billiam – Jump To 3D
Alrighty, so here’s a new Billiam record doing all the awesome tricks a new Billiam record’s supposed to do and by now i’m sure you’ve long since made up your mind about the dude and whether you love or hate his schtick – kinda the musical equivalent to a Wes Anderson flick i guess. I’m firmly in the “love” camp concerning both Billiam and Wes Anderson though and even if they’d both just continue to re-make that exact same kind of film/record for the rest of their lives, i can always take one more of that!
