Extremely fierce and punchy, ‘Plastic Hooligans’ hits the listeners like a train, or like a brick – intense and expansive from the get-go, the record develops over a monotone-like instrumental, packed with psychedelic guitar textures and noisy distortions. A bundle of pure, unfiltered energy with a distinctively punk twist, ‘Plastic Hooligans’ also benefits from a charming fuzzy effect applied on vocals, something that aligns it with the contemporary alt and post-rock scenes.
What more could you want? If you are into psychedelia you’ll love this. For instance, the central breakdown is incredibly cinematic, spacious and dystopian. If you love shoegaze, you’ll be into this, as the production is pretty lush and cathartic. If you are a punk peep, here you are. This is particularly for you. You see? ‘Plastic Hooligans’ is made to appeal to a large audience, and see its production quality, it’s rather well deserved.
Manchester-based Remain Blank is the talented outfit behind such a masterpiece. Made up of four rebellious and charming youngsters, the band seems to have clear ideas about where it’s headed. We cannot wait to see them bloom into a national sensation.
