about
On Houseplants, Squid once again team up with producer du jour Dan Carey and emerge with a powerful, intensely angular track that manages to recall the finest corners of late 70s post-punk alongside a propulsive motorik drive and glimmers of early noughties disco whilst expertly making it all their own.
Throughout its three movements Houseplants exhibits a playfulness, verve and energy that Squid eagerly allow into every part of a process which the band describes as “fast and furious”. It’s partly that willingness to try something new, to allow a single good idea to flourish and to work off-the-cuff that marks Squid out as such a tantalising prospect amongst their peers.

Spiky, gutsy post-punk from this Melbourne group with guitar lines that jab and rhythms that lurch gloriously.

On their first—and possibly last—record, the Sydney duo craft a sunny mix of shoegaze and indie pop; dream-pop dynamo Hatchie features.

I don't hear a lot of this kind of music, gives me ,loose Sonic Youth vibes. Everything about it is cool, like too cool for school cool. I want to skip class and spray paint an alley with these people.
