SAVAGE FURS 12″ EP

I. Thrones of Young Ice
II. Sick Lamborghini
III. Mohair Metal
IV. Asphalt Sorcery
V. Sick Lamborghini (Club Mix)

Drenched in synthesized post-punk, tough erotic rhythms and vocals echoing the dark pop of yesteryear, Savage Furs helm a ‘wave’ of their own, cutting a swath through the revivalist landscape with an infectious sound that is in equal turns sinister and endearing: the sound of pop futurism.

With the release of their debut 12” ep, London trio Savage Furs take the road less travelled. Although evocative of an era, their first recording sees them brandish a signature sound all of their own. Despite comprising elementally of influences vast and dear to them, from the electronic dance floor thump to the more art rock tendencies of Bauhaus or Chrome, their music manages to effortlessly pull together a marriage of sound and vision with heartfelt originality.

Beneath the over-driven paranoia of ‘Thrones Of Young Ice’ lie vocal melodies and hooks that scintillate, whereas ‘Sick Lamborghini’ plays like a saxophone-tortured take on ‘The Reflex’, the chorus projecting upwards from the textured plates of noise. The animalism of ‘Mohair Metal’ is a cajoling force, the guitar is elegant, the rhythmic propulsion like a conveyor belt. ‘Asphalt Sorcery’ closes with it’s fractured funk, it’s transcendence of pulses revolting against smooth vocals and celestial synths.

“Duran Duran meets Throbbing Gristle in unexpected harmony.”

“From London town they come with their blend of synth and sass and a whole mess of what made post-punk the wondrous art form it became… This is a band to keep an eye out for. Vital.” – The Boy With The Thorn In His Side

“A melting pot of influences spills over and spreads a crystalline gloop all its own….expect a classic debut album out of them, because this is brilliant.” -Mick Mercer
