Description
Shame – “Drunk Tank Pink” LP
One of the few UK bands that manage to to give the generic world of 6Music/indie-rock an edge of much-needed credibility, mainly due to their overt punkiness – characterised by the exuberant passion, Fugazi-ish rhythms, and barely supressed instrumental wildness that often teeters on the edge of bursting into some Daughters-style violence. Post-punk more than anything, both old school (Fall, Gang Of Four, Wire) and new(er) school (Slaves, Parquet Courts). Knocks the shit out of Idles that’s for sure.
