Four blokes from England in ghillie suits. The title lays out their thesis, and then they deliver on it -- squelched-synth tales of our dark, degrading times. Sounds like Chrome doing non-stop dance floor bangers. Way better than Viagra Boys.
Excellent sophomore album from Irish post-punkers M(h)aol — it’s unapologetically noisy, belligerently feminist, and delightfully unpredictable. For fans of Lambrini Girls, Snapped Ankles, Gilla Band, and Gustaf.
Just enough musicality to keep it interesting and emotive, while keeping it simple enough to dance to. An awesome journey to listen to this all the way up to their newest record.
Sonically, the album blends trip hop, electronica, alternative, techno, and indie, drawing inspiration from artists like MF Doom, Massive Attack, and The Knife.

"While King of California was often lumped in with the then-fashionable unplugged craze, in retrospect it was the album where Dave Alvin's abilities as a performer began to catch up with his gifts as a songwriter..." --Mark Deming
