Houston, Texas-based Khobretti step up to the table with a six-track EP that wisely keeps things short and sweet. Most tracks are mid-tempo stompers with a blazing thrasher or two thrown in for good measure. Most surprising perhaps was the first track, “Bowery at Midnight,” that manages to slip in a bit of synth to good effect. I personally love it when a band takes a chance every now and again. They’re now on my radar. –Garrett Barnwell (Feral Noise, khobretti.com)
