Keep It Fast’s Top 10 Albums of 2021
It’s been another amazing year, and while I’ve not updated the blog in ages (big life happenings) these are my top 10 albums of 2021. Enjoy.
Demons – Privation
Demons play the kind of frantic, scrappy-sounding punk rock, backed with this sludgy, noise-rock tone of indignation that fans of The Bronx and Whores will love.
Raging Speedhorn – Hard To Kill
Hard To Kill by Raging Speedhorn is the sound of a band that has weathered many changes and turns in their 20+ year career but still sound strong.
Sugar Horse – GakEater
It’s comforting that every Sugar Horse track seems like it could soundtrack the end of the world. If that isn’t a statement to make you want to listen, I don’t know what is.
Down I Go – All Down the Church in Midst of Fire the Hellish Monster Flew, and Passing Onward to the Quire, He Many People Slew
Mythical harbingers of death is the perfect subject matter for Down I Go – it’s intriguing, deliciously oddball and sits within the right realm of tense, deranged anarchy as their musical output.
Pretty Cruel – Hometown Misery EP
Brisbane bruisers, Pretty Cruel (so nearly wrote vacant) cite Fugazi and Norma Jean as influences, with nods to punk rock heroes The Bronx in their sound, which is fairly apparent on this brief but bludgeoning EP
Ampwrecked 16: New Music For Your Ears
Happy New Year! We’ve been on holiday. Here’s some new music for you to absorb from Snapped Ankles, Heavy Lungs, USA/Mexico, The St. Pierre Snake Invasion and Tiny Moving Parts.
Irk – Recipes From The Bible
Deliciously uncomfortable seems to be Irk’s mantra and they manage this over the course of the 9 track slab of warped, snarling wreckage that is Recipes From The Bible.
Henry Blacker – The Making Of Junior Bonner
Henry Blacker’s The Making Of Junior Bonner will coat you in a layer of thick sludge and you’ll be better for it, trust me.
