Rixe: 3 Titres Promo cassette

Description

Rixe are back are with a fresh three song attack. La Cl is two minutes and twenty seconds of lean, mean and meaty Oi! that only Rixe over the last few years have perfected. It’s driving sound is built on razor sharp tight drums, a slightly phased guitar and vocals that bite and bark. Nuit Rasoir is another straight down the line pounder that could easily have been one of the first ten releases on No Future Records. Les Cent Pas is the final track and rounds off things with another stomper. The sound is bigger, punchier but still very much Rixe that you know and love.

Our take: Limited 3-song cassette by Rixe what is it promoting? Perhaps theyre finally going to make the jump to 12 vinyl? Who knows! All that I can confirm is that these three songs are the Rixe you have come to know and love with little in the way of left turns or surprises. Since they started releasing 7s on LVEUM, Rixes aestheticsonically and visuallyhas been completely airtight, and all three tracks here stay very much within that framework. One would think that that framework would be constricting, but now that Rixe has a substantial number of tracks out in the world its kind of amazing that theyve managed to stick to such a consistent sound without sounding like theyre just rewriting the same song over and over. Anyway, enough of the pontificating the point Im trying to make is that Rixe keep doing their thing and it still doesnt feel played out or redundant, so incorporate these three burners into your playlist and get pumped for whatever it is that theyre promoting.
