Release Notes:
If there's any life left in the UK dance-punk scene, it's probably in New Zealand. Skinny-limbed Kiwi quintet Bang! Bang! Eche! approaches the Brit clichΘs from a new angle, as the band combines aggressive, distorted vocals with a dissonant musical edge to create something impressively vulgar. "Nikee" offers up deliciously campy synth lines, and the call-and-response section is a messy endeavor: "Rip it up, mess it up, fuck it up/Cut it up, line it up, snort it up/Gag her up, smack her up, choke her up." Over the thumping bass lines, shimmering riffage and winding synths, vocalist Zach Doney satirically spouts off. As in "4 To The Floor": "From Tokyo to France/We know you want to dance!" Now that's confidence.
