Now PlayingDeep Rest - WeerstandTune In     Song History
|
Salem Trials started life in the northern, industrial, town of Bradford in 1987. They recorded lots of songs but did very little… until they broke up in 1991 after leaving a collection of self produced cassettes (now all available on CDR – plug plug!). In 2018 the band reformed with the intention of still doing very little… except record all the lost and new songs they’ve written over the years. [Discogs]
NEON KITTENS are the new cats on the block, with their name taken from a missheard ‘Ultravox!’ lyric and songs that are inspired by their collective love of No Wave, PiL, On-U Sound and ZE Records.
Post-punk beatnik shenanigans are afoot with this the new release from Neon Kittens. Their second album [I think] carries on where their last left off, with spoken female vocals purring erotically like an attractive nun filing her nails, smiling, knowing her crotchless knickers are only slightly hidden by her too short mini habit wondering just where to place her oversized cross next, over the scratch and sniff guitar yearnings that are part Fire Engines, part Scary Monster & Super Creeps, part rock ‘n’ roll, and part sexual abandonment. Yes, this is the true sound of total derailment. This is the sound of a 15 year old girl French kissing her jazz induced slightly older best friend with benefits; an album of pure off-center genius.
