Remora: Swash

Swash cover art
 
Dark post-punk band Remora are back with a new EP, Swash. The band is fronted by Silber Records head Brian John Mitchell, along with Peter Westcott Aldrich and Brian Lea McKenzie. The seven tracks are live recordings made during a rehearsal, but this is not betrayed by the production quality. With influences from Joy Division, Swans and Television, the EP finds Remora honing their aggressive, post-apocalyptic sound to a hard edge. Dense, heavy and  atmospheric are all apt descriptors of one of the best live albums we've heard. Watch the video for EP track The Doctors Wife and then download Swash at the link below.
