Protomartyr

9 August

Detroit’s Protomartyr can filter generations of rage and social toxicity into compositions with post-punk innovativeness, wide dynamics and razor sharp clarity. This is a band with a point you’re happy to be speared on.

Detroit’s Protomartyr make violence, betrayal and corruption pretty. On their 2013 debut, distorted scissor punches and spirally BPMs made up an uncompromising sonic anger with clearly defined punk strokes. At the start of what now seems to have been a breaking point for new guitar music with fists, they were already a head above the rest. But this year’s speedy follow-up, Under Color of Official Right, proves the US five-piece can filter generations of rage and social toxicity into compositions with post-punk innovativeness, wide dynamics and razor sharp clarity. This is a band with a point you’re happy to be speared on.
