DOWNLOAD: A Gun Called Tension & Be Your Own Pet
We’ve got some of the Dim Mak catalogue to offer you guys today, as our buddies at the label were kind enough to donate some tracks to the greater good of blowing everyone’s minds. First off we have an old classic from Be Your Own Pet (who just released their second record Get Awkward to rave reviews) called “Extra Extra”, which we seem to remember them playing a couple of years ago at the Siren festival, when they were but little punked out high school students playing to giddy journalists and hardcore fans.
Next up is A Gun Called Tension, who describe themselves as “a union of post-punk, new wave, dub, and indie rock”, and they aren’t joking. Featuring members of Murder City Devils and the Beta Band, the band creates a droning, electro-rock atmosphere, driving you effortlessly towards fist-pumping and head-banging. "2 Gold Franxs" sounds kind of like Stereolab if they were all ex-hardcore kids on testosterone injections. Wait for the CELLO BREAKDOWN. Yeah.
This guy is awesome. He was
This guy is awesome. He was in Modest Mouse for a while too. Damn I miss the Murder City Devils.
