DEBBY FRIDAY レコード& CD

Review: Deathbomb Arc are long-renowned for their raucously wide scope for releasing new, American experimental music. Anything from hip-hop, ambient, noise and jazz will have bursted from this punkish label at some point - it's no surprise for an outfit that was once run out the back of a van. Longtime DB-Arc releasee Debby Friday now makes a return with Bitchpunk; the artist variously describes her sound as that or 'thundercore', owing to the music's brash and no-holds-barred persona. Only a couple of minutes per track are needed for Friday to make a statement - 'Stay Up' hears Friday vocalise freely against embiggened, deep-fried industrial beats, while nastier future-club cuts equally flaunt her advanced, precision production chops.
