Album artwork

NME: “This memorable and arrestingly bleak debut LP feels like a loud announcement of a striking new band… noise-rock ripe with melodrama. The sense of catharsis that defines ‘Letter To Self’ is formidable and powerful. This is a dynamic album that is reflective of the muddled world we find ourselves in – delivered with a fortifying sense of honesty from an essential emerging band.” Full review here. Score: 5/5.

TUTV: Today 5 January is only the first official album release day of 2024 and we already get a RAD one. These Irish indies burst with tremendous vehemence and sharp-teethed gusto. Their high-voltage jackhammers trash and slash along their build-up/break-down course. Breathtaking hullabaloo.

Schizo guitars, unrestrained bass/drum forcefulness, and Karla Chubb‘s borderline vocals combine for exorcistic flare-ups. At times, Chubb‘s unbridled intensity brings Courtney Love‘s maddening cry-outs to mind. As I said, breathtaking hullabaloo. And the cliché no fillers, all killers can’t be more accurate here. Can’t wait to see them explode next month
on stage in Antwerp.
