Consequential Quasars! (EP)

Post-Punk Monk
While they musically have all sorts of [good] influences, the unique and vibrant point of view they bring to the table, steeped liberally in the art history of the 20th century and expressing moods and thoughts far away from the norm, makes them a more successful New Wave revivalist band than most.

about
We are excited to announce the new 5-track EP from Oddball DIY Electro Trash Punk band Head Noise. Based in Aberdare, Mountain Ash (and now also) Cwmbran, the band have recently beefed up their original trio sound with the inclusion of a electronic drummer (Topper the Pops), to help give their new songs a bit more of a bite! 'Consequential Quasars' is the 5th EP release from the band presented by Dirty Carrot records.
The idea for the EP was to have more of a rough and ready, raw and energised approach to the recording for bit more of an experimental flair. The inclusion of the electronic drums alongside some much thicker and fuzzy guitars have given the latest batch of songs a certain kick to them, which the band are finding quite exciting to play with. The band thinks that this will transpose to the live arena very well, so are very much looking forward to debuting these songs when live music makes its eventual comeback.
The EP is stuffed full of the ambiguous and surreal lyrics that the band are known for, with an undercurrent of electropop meets good old fashioned punk rock.

about
Head Noise Aberdare, UK
Head Noise are an oddball / angular electropunk band from South Wales. Spitting out angsty garbage about junk culture,
broken technology and modern art! 🎶⚡️🎹
==========
"Slightly maddening’ could be the M.O. of Head Noise, the Aberdare band that rattle like a Hypervalue Devo and bark vocals along the Eddie Argos shade of ‘divisive’."

Although I do agree I'd prefer more focus on the IRS era, this is a really solid collection of covers that delivers some unique takes. Totally inspired me to go back and listen to the original albums as well.

The debut full-length from noted game composer Megan McDuffee is slick and moody electropop with more than a hint of darkness. Plus vocals!

I used to say my favourite band was Future of the Left. Now I just say I am a good Christian man. A fit one, at that
