RED LIQUID


I think I've probably been sitting on this one for so long simply because I don't know how to use mere words to properly shower it with praise. Profoundly full psychedelic post punk with shoegazing guitars and vocals that manage to channel Peter Murphy with a complete lack of pretense. The songs breathe, and I'm tempted to drop comparisons to THE MISSION U.K. as much as early '90s Sub Pop though I'm fully aware that the roots here are punk. There is a new EP around the corner from Seattle's RED LIQUID, and the internet tells me that their sound has matured even further and ventured shamelessly into psychedelia...which only serves to earn them more favor from The Escape.
