Think back to the gritty, snotty, and wrangly garage rock of mid-70s New York. The power, the immersion, and the energy. Brighton’s own No See Ums, channel this epoch, scrolling through its library and its history. It’s an act of revival but with a twist of the angsty grunge/ alternative/ punk styles of the 90s. And the result is a raw and unadulterated reality carved out of the old and modern. You’re sure to run into experimental and innovative walls of sound.
The band’s latest release is the ‘Elephants At The Airport’, a nine-track collection that is as brilliant as it is absurd. The group’s love for satire, innuendo, and wry humour claims a cerebral presence in the atmospheric soundscapes. Each theme incepts a distinct reality that they then forge spectacular dimensions into.
The title track exemplifies the essence of the album. Its bold riff breaks, slapping beats, and chaotic vocals emphasize the old school garage rock while playing to the modern context. It is contemplative in the most confronting and charismatic way. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
