THE READ – “Party Lines”/”YR Garbage”This
single came our way around the same time as the Caterpillar Tracks/Arms
Exploding split but we weren’t able to get to it and listen until very
recently. The latest from The Read
offers up a pair of high energy, frantic indie/skronk rock featuring clean yet
fragmented guitar parts, and intense vocals.
Quick and to the point these songs come across as walking the gray area
between fragmented dissonance and melody with a rough around the edges approach
that calls to mine both elements of late 70s post punk as much as early 2000s
indie/noise rock. This single takes a
different tack on how underground rock can still be melodic while not being
pop. (BOONE)
