Prise Rapide Trop Plein cassette

Goddang, you ever just hear a band that means what they say and plays it well? Admit it, it happens fewer times than you think. Well, let’s take a look at PRISE RAPIDE from Paris (not Texas). This music feels like it wears its heart on its sleeve, and drives it home like a stake through a vampire’s heart. The hooks and melodic turns here will keep you locked in throughout its relatively short runtime (just under 30 minutes). The bass is honey bright with presence, anchoring otherwise zig-zagging melodic post-punk without ever getting too dour. It’s good stuff, I don’t know what else to tell ya.
