HTRK
Nostalgia (2007/FIRE)
HTRK (formed 2003) are a mysterious three-piece from Melbourne who reside in Berlin and London. Inspired by the sounds and images of David Lynch, THE BIRTHDAY PARTY and electronic artist Pita, HTRK effortlessly create music of sublime tension and beauty. Heavily processed and bathed in reverb, 'Nostalgia' is a collection of 7 live recordings from 2004. It was after 'Nostalgia' that Rowland S. Howard became interested in HTRK, eventually going on to produce their forthcoming debut album 'Marry Me Tonight', which will be released later this year. Nostalgia was recorded with two microphones and an old tape deck, prior to their first tour of Sydney in 2004. Says Nigel, "We ran through our set and the performance was uncanny... we called it Nostalgia because of our hatred of bands and fans who suck the past dry, as well as our own guilty nostalgia for the nihilistic energies rampant in the 80s underground, and the strange role that the Tarkovsky film Nostalghia played in the earliest days of the band's creation up in the Macedon hills. It is in many ways our definitive introductory statement."
HUBRIS
base desire (2011/CRICKET CEMETERY)
HARDCORE. Laying down a litany of anger against an unjust world, HUBRIS comes thrashing up from the lost landscapes of Washington, D.C. to herald a terrifying battle cry for the pound of flesh owed to the dispossesed. Blown out and brutal beyond description, this solemn mob hurls the razorwire along the spine of such other angry merchants as HIS HERO IS GONE, FROM ASHES RISE and TRAGEDY. "base desire", brings 4 HUBRIS howls that will punch you in the gut, and demand to know why you ever gave up the fight. Members of BITTER AMERICAN, NATURAL LAW, DEATHRATS and LOTUS FUCKER.
