...according to our Brian on 26 November 2009.

Dead Boss? That's the title of this totally bizarre 3 track 7" by Pigeon Religion. Phil says it sounds like Pixies, well it certainly may well be influenced by them but this is a lot messier, like more DIY slacker punk. I really like the slurred whoa-whoa-ing, the rattly drums & the looming bass but not as much as I like the nihilistic sheets of ragged, scrawly guitar. Phil says the second song is 'Buttholesey', it's less insistent than 'Dead Boss' but has an equally deranged & misanthropic attitood rising from its stumbling, barbed aesthetic, it really reminds me of Terminal Cheesecake actually who were a pretty nuts bunch of individuals from London about 20 years ago. The last track is a stupid grumbling gutter squall with cool juvenile vocals that remind me of some old classic US hardcore band. A quality single, old-skool rules once more!!

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

One of two simultaneously released debut 7 s from AZ s Pigeon Religion, the other being on Parts Unknown. Wrecked and abstract punk, which if you want to exclusively live in the distant past: a bit of a Flipper, later Black Flag and Birthday Party hybrid of sorts, a mess that works it way through all senses. This band has played about 70 times in their first year as a band: clearing out venues with 45 minute renditions of new tracks, clearing out intestines with combinations of extreme volume and strobe lights that have constant speed changes, blowing away virtually every band that they open for as they come through town and turning living rooms and basements into 1am destruction zones on a regular basis. Co-released with Jarson International.
