mnttaB - shiny stones and miracles (2010)


9.3

/Art-punk, Post-punk, No Wave, Avant-rock, Noise rock, Experimental rock/

Comment: mnttaB is a frantic art-punk/post-punk group from Australia warming up old No Wave traditions a la The Screamers, and 80`s Sonic Youth with more angry and propulsive hints at British post-punk examples a la The Fall, where abrasive, angular guitar-induced noise wall is mixed up with the chords of violins, and manifesting vocal manner. In a nutshell, it is highly convincing due to its nihilistic approach.
