Album Notes & Community Reviews

The British duo provides a caustic, highly rhythmic assault of post-punk and spoken-word punk poetry on this brief EP. Utilizing driving, dance-punk drum programming and gritty synthesizer basslines, the release serves as a raw, working-class critique of modern British society.
