Bait – Waspy (Cool Thing Records)
Bait - Waspy |
Release Date: Out Now
Southend’s favourite angry
agitators BAIT are back with another single and it’s hugely satisfying in all
its unforgiving energy, bile and aggression. The press pack suggests that this
is like Keith Flint and John Lydon attacking a Wasps nest but there’s more than
that to this track, even though the title ‘Waspy’ is somewhat appropriate. The
buzz that introduces this number is soon hammered out of its prominence by the
factory line beat making something brutalist and unforgiving. The guitars are
borne from punk and garage but fed through a filter of the KLF and Carter USM
just to make sure they have a pop edge. This is bubblegum grunge with a razor
blade hidden in the middle and a healthy dose of energy that will inspire a
number of circle pits and moshes around the country this summer – are you in?
