Necropolis

This five-piece includes BJ and Adam of Columbus Discount Records. I've seen them compared to Pere Ubu, but Necropolis is all over the map, with way more spazztic energy; this is all punk, no funk. "No Chance" starts with shrill and shark-attack bass chomp, but turns out downright catchy. The raw demos are a real treat, and check out the abrasive angularity of "Van v Art".
