A big fan of Post Punk, Punk, Goth, New Wave, and Electronic music, the more British or Euro the better (though I am from the US and love much of our own as well).
A thrilling debut that evokes the same feelings one had when they discovered Wire (while all the genre references in the review are correct, those didn't exist when Wire debuted and helped create them). This, however, manages to sound wholly original, the work of soundscape artists wielding potent guitars (and a tight and off kilter rhythm). It should be the front runner for debut of the year, because it may be the front runner for indie record of the year.
