New Urq music this Friday! This limited edition cassingle features two tracks written on an acoustic guitar with one string deliberately out of tune. The artwork comes in 4 different orientations.

The A-Side “Stop Mania!” is a smashing new groove song you’ll have on repeat during a sugar high.

This is a small edition of 30. Urq will have advance copies at his show tomorrow here in Baton Rouge. ➡️

29/03/2023

Our first cassingle is out this Friday featuring new music from Urq! 🚨🎛 Urq is based here in Baton Rouge and creates his own worlds through zolo-esque “maximal nonsense” and experimental pop catchiness.

You can get familiar with him NOW though by listening to his essential already-existing catalogue- The Castle Has a Back Door (2019) and The Legend of Anteliqot (2020).

“Stop Mania!“/“Scrapped Ideas” out this Friday!

Best Punk on Bandcamp Round Up for March... Excited to see the Coins Parallèles release in great company!

"Nervy, minimal post-punk and experimental no wave join forces on this demo, a solo project from Montréal’s Yan Skene. The opening track is bouncy, with the bass driving the melody. Skene’s understated vocals, delivered in French, sit low, their nonchalance giving them a hypnotic quality. Each track flows naturally into the next, with either a beat or piece of the melody carried forward. Several songs have a sci-fi feel: On “Un trou dans la tête,” a weird electronic sound slowly takes over, one that sounds like a tape being eaten by a cassette player. “Subterfuge,” an instrumental, is pure noise, the sound building into a reverberating drone. The title track boasts a ratatat cowbell beat and a classic disjointed post-punk melody, the echoing vocals offering a cryptic air."

We've still got some copies left: https://toughgum.bandcamp.com/album/d-mo

Brutal hardcore, electrifying proto-punk, and more.
