The new Art-Punk insurgency has arrived. Beautiful. Destructive.
Venomous, and enticingly seductive. The passionately melodic yet
simultaneously primal vocal snarlings of Ashley Chapman merge
flawlessly with the well orchestrated collision of kinetic chaos, pop
sensibilities and rhythmic hooks provided by Chris Hansen
(guitar/microkorg), Joe Kanack (bass) and Andy Rodriguez (drums).
Although drawing immediate comparisons to such acts as Pretty Girls
Make Graves and the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s (due to the obvious similitude
of their female singers), it soon becomes apparent that Red Knife
Lottery is an entirely more aggressive and energetic animal – being
raised in the same mid-western Hardcore scene that has given birth to
noise rock favorites Since By Man, Tora! Tora! Torrance! and Temper
Temper.
Recorded just months after their formation, this debut release provides
a rare glimpse into that defining moment when a young, brand new
group (destined most certainly for an illustrious future), shines for the
first time in it’s full radiance. Unadulterated by over production, self
indulgence, or major label star fabrication, Red Knife Lottery explodes
onto the scene with a raw power and attitude reminiscent of the early
days of punk and hardcore itself.
Come check out the Drama, and prepare yourself to rock out, get
down, jump up and shake your ass to the sonic whirlwind that is Red
Knife Lottery.
