Down the road, South of Witch Mountain and across the pond, there's an uproar in the distance, a sonic demolition of sorts, and it is - what else? - GLORIOUS rock 'n' roll. We're thrilled to introduce the thunderous, bruise-blue, screeching dissonance of YAK to the Church of Third Man, who have already whipped up totally frenetic and drastic yelp all across the UK.Reviews:
Their latest EP (produced by Pulp's Steve Mackey) stateside, featuring the sloppy, sludgy, searing single ''No'' with MASSIVE guitars, cantankerous drums, and a defiant, vox maelstrom. It's gonna gnarl through your speakers and bludgeon you with pure nihilism fuzz. Following ''No'' on the A-side is ''Alas Salvation'' a song so chewed up and spit out it could pass for The Upholsterers covering DNA. The B-side ditches the bulk of the grit and instead keeps things icy, mellow, and lonely with ''Out on a Limb.'' It's a stately and necessary respite till you flip the wax and strap back in for the A-side.
PLUS noted artist and photographer Nick Waplington has copiously tackled the cover art. It's beautiful and violent use of color are a welcome and complimentary addition to this package.
