Civic / 'Taken By Force' Aus Exclusive Green Vinyl
On the look out for a band with the unbridled ability to compress garage rock and punk right back down to their chaotic cores? Look no further than Melbourne band CIVIC!!! Attempting to find semblances of calm amongst the crumbling mess seems to be the overarching narrative within this record. Intertwining heavy emotions of anxious doom, anger and melancholia to represent those hard to articulate introspective thoughts, Taken By Force allows the duality of life to come through. With that being said this allows ample space for bombastic surfy fun in between the furious catharsis, something that many genres have a hard time encapsulating, a quality that punk will always have in trumps. Ride the wave!
