Sorry I Missed This: Ausmuteants
Last week this great track from Australia’s Ausmuteants started floating around; I immediately dug the tune, but got side-tracked with other silly things like SXSW interviews. I like the keyboard touch that’s swaying in the track; it gives it this touch of something different that you’re not finding in like-minded punk acts. There’s a pulsing rhythm created by the steady drumming, but the vocals have really stuck with me throughout my time with this song; they have this nasally quality that’s actually fitting with the tune, and not at all abrasive. Goner Records, always reliable, will be releasing Amusements, the band’s album, on April 1st.
