Love & Rage With Lilac Attitude

How could you not love a band that has a song called “Childish Brains” in their repertoire! And here it is, right at the end of Lilac Attitude’s debut EP “Love & Rage”. It’s out now on A Tree in a Field Records.

Raucously, tenderly and nostalgically post-punky, every one of Lilac Attitude’s songs is a short, sharp reminder of the beautiful things that can happen when four kids (including two female bandmembers) with a healthy lust for life and absolutely no desire to win awards for politeness get together to make a din. Five tracks, none much longer than a classic three minutes, all race past in a blur of super catchy choruses, joyful thrashings of drums and the odd deadly guitar riff. The sound (mixed by Gordon Raphael who has worked with Hinds, The Strokes, Regina Spektor, etc) is nourishingly meaty, and, overall, the EP is a like a Chinese meal: barely finished, you want more.
