If you like heavy metal music you should consider checking out , an electro-metal screamo-pop post-hardcore “nu metal” duo* with hints of riotgrrl and hip-hop and dub-step, fresh off winning Best UK Breakthrough Band at the 2021 Heavy Metal Music Awards. Suggested start: BACKYARD BASTARDS [cw: blood and violence and cheerleaders]
Taking their name from the L7 tune, sounds at times like Slipknot crossed with the Prodigy, filtered through through a sieve of post-boredom zeitgeist nihilism, and at other times, sardonic skewerers of the psycho-emotional techno-social wasteland singularity that we find ourselves trying to navigate on the daily. They have yet to release an album, so far only doing singles and collaborations, but oh, what singles!
LAPDANCE – A cover of the N.E.R.D. tune
SPIT. – an interesting variety of musical styles touched on through to the end; the black-and-white one
RAGE ALL OVER – helpfully subtitled; the red one
Your Patron Saints – I feel extremely seen and related when Sam announces himself as the patron saint of disappointment
PYRO PYRO – the green one
Note: There is an unrelated Boston band, active in the late 80s and early 90s also named Wargasm.
* core members are Sam Matlock on guitar and vocals, Milkie Way on bass and vocals, with Ryan Cornell on drums for live performances and getting murdered in videos
