ELECTROCUTIONS, THE: Forgotten City: 7”

Jul 14, 2011

There’s an early punk influence in there, but it veers less in the default directions of the Ramones and the New York Dolls, and more towards the slightly off-kilter vicinity of the taut English cluster of bands that ended up being the vanguard of post punk. The band’s precision is impeccable, with barre chords sharing space with slashing guitar work, and an almost military backbeat. Some solid work is in abundance here.
