During – Birds of Juneau / Big Farmer
Chunklet Industries is killing it again with this debut 7″ by a noise rock/post punk supergroup, kind of an unholy trinity made up of members of Wilful Boys, Spray Paint and Brandy whose sound incorporates familiar elements of all three aforementioned groups yet eschews predictability – with the A-Side giving off that distinct Spray Paint vibe and the other track veering a bit stronger towards the other two bands’ sonic hallmarks. To make things even better, we’re also promised a full length sometime this fall!
Pigeon – Deny All Knowledge Of Complicity
With the Berlin group’s 2018 self-titled full length being their most varied, playful record and the subsequent Bug EP their loudest, most uncompromising one, their second long player recently released via adagio830 certainly showcases their most concise, effective and elaborate bundle of songs so far. Once again i’m reminded of pretty much any great post punk act of recent years both in- and outside Berlin. Think Negative Space, Pretty Hurts, Rank/Xerox, Diät, Public Eye, Exit Group, Nag… the list could go on and on. In other words: First rate shit!
