EGYPTIAN BLUE
(Post punk – Yala! Records – Brighton, UK)
Every element of Egyptian Blue’s angular and uncompromising sound brings with it an urgency that is both rare and vital. Their duo of critically acclaimed EP’s to date, both released via Yala! Records, have made the Brighton-based band a compelling proposition. Between their jolting, groove-orientated post-punk attack and their polemic lyrical approach, the quartet made moves in all of the right places. The tracks ‘Collateral’ and ‘Nylon Wire’ were playlisted at BBC 6Music, while further support came from Jack Saunders, Steve Lamacq, John Kennedy and artistic peers including Joe Talbot (IDLES) and Yannis Philippakis (Foals).
Lifelong friends Andy Buss and Leith Ambrose formed the band in their hometown of Colchester (UK) with bassist Luke Phelps. Initially practicing above a jewellery shop, they were the epitome of a band reacting to the mundanity of their surroundings. Early jams often devolved into marathon sessions of fourteen hours or more, made all the more chaotic by the amount of whisky they’d share as well as the growing attention of the local police. Relocating to Brighton, a turning point came at a King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard gig. Seeing a band that well-drilled made them rethink the work ethic that their own project required. The addition of drummer Isaac Ide completed the jigsaw, offering a more intense direction for the band, together with a fresh rush of creativity.
Their debut album is due for release in 2023 via Yala! Records.

HUMOUR
(Post punk – So Young Records – Glasgow, UK)
Voici un nom à la c**. Humour, pourtant, n’a pas l’air de venir ici pour blaguer. Le groupe de Glasgow en Écosse, formé en 2021, vient tout juste de sortir son tout premier single baptisé yeah, mud!. Un titre puissant, qui reprend certes les codes déjà bien usés du post-punk, mais qui le fait avec une touche de fraîcheur, et une identité déjà bien affirmée. L’album, prévu sur le label So Young Records, ne devrait pas tarder.
