London rabble rousers Ikara Colt return with their second album "Modern Apprentice". Now I love this caustic, punky 4 piece to bits but didn't they once spout off the legend that any band who makes more than X amount of records should be shot? Well, luckily for them I think everyone's forgotten. Especially as this is a fine successor to "Chat & Business" A 12 track rush of new wave spikiness, tight as fuck angular rhythm section, sneering vox & great, catchy tunes. No one song overstays it's welcome & as a tribute to two of the most legendary trans-Atlantic sonic travellers, The Fall & (Early) Sonic Youth, it's a fine piece of work. On Fantastic Plastic CD in nice filofax derived nipplepack & REALLY limited vinyl with free 7" (we only have a handful, limited to one per person so be quick!)Be the first to review this record. Best reviewer each month gets £10 off their next order!
