Description
Since 2015, Sextile has been a powerhouse in the LA underground scene. They can start a riot with a raw synth squall or a sharp guitar jerk. Now, they're back with a serotonin - boosting new album, a fresh group dynamic, faster beats per minute, and an even wilder new direction. Recorded in Yucca Valley, Push is a gem on the fringes of hardcore dance music. With drum & bass, gabber, and trance elements shining like glowsticks at a '90s rave, it's a must - listen. 'Contortion' kicks off the album with Keehn's shadowy vocals and a dirty electro bass twist from the 2000s, setting the mood for an 11 - track dance - punk extravaganza. The album is filled with teen angst and biting social commentary. 'No Fun' tells the story of a teen trying to leave town, balanced with face - melting synths that turn it into an acid trance character study. A punk spirit runs through the album. 'Crassy Mel' is a high - energy tribute to '70s anarcho - punk legends Crass, with headbanging riffs, yelping vocals, and Prodigy - style breakbeats, followed by a dreamy ambient ending. Push is inspired by music fans who love both punk shows and raves. Influences like Josh Wink, Iggy Pop, Goldie, and early XL Recordings are evident, and the dancefloor is always in focus. 'New York' brings the musical references to life, guiding the album like an acid - soaked star. Sextile still pays homage to their post - punk roots while giving their sound a fresh, smiley - faced update. Tracks include Contortion, No Fun, Crassy Mel, Lost Myself Again, Crash (feat. Izzy Glaudini), New York, Basically Crazy, Modern Weekend, LA DJ, Plastic, and Imposter.
