FOTOCRIME (US) \u25c6 AGE OF STRANGE CULTS
Advertisement
Exploding with melodic and pummeling industrial-tinged post-punk, Louisville dark punk stalwarts FOTOCRIME erupt in an unexpectedly aggressive tone on Security. Few bands sound this immediate and energized on their fifth album, yet Fotocrime tear through Security’s ten songs in just over thirty minutes with a surprising fervor. This more guitar-driven direction may seem like a pivot, but to those in the know it’s inherent in Fotocrime leader Ryan Patterson’s musical history and DNA.
Formed in 2017, Fotocrime have released five EPs and four albums, and on their fifth LP Security, Patterson is joined by new members Benjamin Clark on guitar and David Cundiff on bass. The album features appearances from drummer Jay Weinberg (SLIPKNOT), legendary vocalist Barney Greenway of NAPALM DEATH, Aaron Turner (SUMAC, ISIS), Brian Cook (RUSSIAN CIRCLES, BOTCH) and a cavalcade of veteran Louisville artists. Musician and noted producer J. Robbins (JAWBOX) also performed on several tracks and traveled to Patterson’s studio, the House of Foto, to co-produce, engineer, and co-mix the album.
On Security, the band eschews their previous approach for a more aggressive and furious tone, one that matches the aforementioned bands along with the man-vs-machine churn of Godflesh and middle period Ministry, the down-picking stylings of The Marked Men, and even the anarcho leanings of legendary bands like Crass and The Mob. Historically a synth-forward band, these influences come to the forefront to reveal a new era for FOTOCRIME. Out 13.03. via Artoffact Records!
