Fact #148859

Here’s a Canadian quartet who deliver punky, industrial thrash with lashings of venom, energy and lo-fi grunge attack - increasingly hard to find these days. And they do it with decent melodies attached. Their core duo of singing bassman Rob Higgins and co-vocalist Niva Chow (who also plays theremin) harmonise well, giving the band a touch of sophistication unusual in this genre, despite rocking with brain-shredding visceral abandon. Gear-heads will probably like to know that it was recorded in just two weeks at Dave Grohl’s 606 Studio in Northridge, Los Angeles, using the historic 70s Neve 8028 analogue console employed by Nirvana in 1991 for Nevermind.
