Balaban and the Bald Illeagles, hailing from Stourbridge, England, return with ferocious intent on "P. T. A. B." The new offering is a great blend of post-punk sounds mixed with the angsty punk you would have found in the 80s, especially in London.
... raw, nostalgic blast of post-punk energy that hits hard and refuses to sit still.
The vocals are energetic, with a grungy edge. It is a very authentic track with a fantastic pulse, and one thing I really enjoyed was the guitars throughout. The sound reminds me of the music I grew up with as a teenager. It is full of emotion, with plenty of moments where you feel like jumping up and down and moshing like an absolute madman.
For now, the track is only available via YouTube, so see below. This means if you are after something not many people have heard yet, this is one you can happily gatekeep.
With this single acting as the lead from their forthcoming album "Post-Truth Apocalypse Blues", it serves as a strong introduction if you are unfamiliar with their sound. Get ready for when the new album drops and be sure to follow them on all social channels.
