Brand New Track from Speed Week

You can always count on the music scene in Melbourne to offer up something really tasty, as is the case with a brand new track from Speed Week, who’ve just announced a brand new record. When the bass line walks you into the track with its grumbling tones, it sets you up for these sharp knife cuts from the guitar that slice and stab through the lyrical lines; together, the sounds create this frantic nature that seems as harrowing as it is hook-laden. Speaking of the lyrics, they’re hitting at the mundane, and if I’m being honest, they feel very close to all the work Tim Darcy was dropping in Ought, offering a bit of public discourse in an observational manner. Look for their new Weak Speed LP on October 17th via Endless Recordings.
