Demand – “Nearly Human” 7″
For their debut vinyl release Washington DC’s Demand have channelled some old school sXe pumping it out with substantial levels of aggression, bounce and melody. I’m wondering to myself how a new band manage to trigger random memories of Reason To Believe, Turning Point, Bold, No For An Answer (and Suicidal Tendencies, even) with such goddamn panache, only to then notice the “ex-members of Firewalker, Asesinato and Trapped Under Ice”, and ahh, now it makes sense. This one’s a cracker, my lovelies. The vocals own the right balance of desperation and soul-fullness ; the drums shunt things forward with a satisfyingly hard precision; while the guitars provide the perfect sonic filler.
