VENUS TWINS - RAXIS (cassette/12")

For fans of: Death From Above, Big Dick, Raw Grip, and Lightning Bolt.

The new 10-track behemoth of an album that is ‘RAXIS’ is a prodigious leap forward for the New York two-piece. The brothers play drums and bass/vocals with serious noise rock nods to other killer bands such as Death From Above and Big Dick (hmmm…both Canadian) but add a serious dose of experimentation. Be it the undeniable grooves on “Return to Dust“, “Angel 32:35“, or “Light Catches the Rats“, the eerie and awkward “Agony Sludge Infinite“ and “seeS recnepS“, or the long and epic “God’s Machines“ and “In a Smashed Mirror“, this album covers a serious amount of ground and is one of the best noise rock albums of 2022. Oh, and the tapes look stellar. What’s that? Vinyl too? Fuck yes.

12” vinyl /250: 125 tri-merge, 125 clear w/blue trip button, and 5 test presses, all with lyric insert.
