SPECTRES
DYING (SONIC CATHEDRAL)
The Bristol-based four-piece are the loudest, most abrasive band on Sonic Cathedral to date, and one who make a mockery of those articles that crop up every now and again asking if guitar music is dead.
"If guitars are supposed to be dead," wrote Drowned In Sound in their review of 2013's 'Hunger' EP, "it's probably because Spectres have killed them." The album opens with the ominous and unsettling white noise and dark found sounds of 'Drag' and is unrelenting for the next 50 minutes.
