Third LP of quality post-punk from this Berlin group who also appeared on the famed Achtung APK tape comp. Bleak, angular guitar lines creep around and then suddenly crash with surprising garage grit on tracks like “Create” and “Scum.” Imagine TOTAL CONTROL or DIÄT with John Dwyer on guitar; we get the introspective feels but also the crunch. “Miserable Thoughts & Ideas” and “I Don’t Want to Fight” start with classic ’50s rock’n’roll riffs that crumble into rhythmic art-punk tirades, as if the band is taking the history of rock music and re-molding it into something more personal.
