| The Dirty Nil - Wrestle Yü ToHusker Dü |
There's been a butt-load of good
music coming my way from Canada recently but it's mostly been of the carefully
constructed indie or delicate acoustic pop variety. The Dirty Nil have all the
delicacy of using a sledgehammer to peel a grape and are about as far from
acoustic pop as North Korea is from being a chilled out, liberal holiday
resort. An early contender for title of the year, 'Wrestle Yü to Husker Dü', is
a Nirvana meets Pixies shaped slab of grinding, grunge that is as satisfying
and pleasing as a having your favourite sandwich delivered to your bed 5
minutes after particularly good morning sex. This is a shot across the bows
ahead of the band's forthcoming new EP 'SMITE' which I, for one can't wait to
get my hands on and my ears around.
