Then check out Candy Sniper www.runningriotrecords.co.uk There's nothing like building up a bit of suspense and taking your audience by surprise. Snapping your ears into submission is exactly what this four-pice have in mind, with opener 'Kill Melody' lulling you into a false sense of serenity before the heavens come crashing in a Fugazi's younger-asylum-bound-brother-type of way! Sickly-sweet these boys are not. In fact they shoot that down with the virile injection of 'Resit Youth' loaded with acute guitars that rock in an Icarus Line-playing-Kids Near Water-covers clap-rock way. The cool collision of psudeo-vintage sonics crossed with dementia continues with 'The Remember Gene', a riot of feral vocals and snapping rhythms and the seizure of 'Connection At A Party'. There's more madness where that comes from too. More unpredictable than applying make-up in a pitch-dark cellar, Candy Sniper are here to make you rock. (7/10) - Rock Sound Then check em at Dr Drakes, 8th March w/Femora and The Void
