Description
Split between a krautrock/post-punk band from Australia and a post-punk band from Canada, respectively.
Our take: This split 7 matches Australians Exec (whom you may remember from their LP on Anti-Fade) with Canadians N0V3L, and its an inspired pairing. While both bands can fall under the post-punk umbrella (which is so broad as to be meaningless), they share deeper similarities like a non-retro sensibility and a tendency toward experimentation. Both bands feel like part of a long tradition of bands who bring together the avant-garde and pop worlds, such as Gang of Four, This Heat, and Wire. If you follow the more adventurous and experimental end of the DIY punk undergroundi.e. if label names like Digital Regress and Ever/Never ring a bellthis two-songer is a solid grip.
