GUTTERSNIPE

Leeds (UK) xenofeminist crisis-energy rock duo Guttersnipe wield guitar, drums, electronics and voice to unleash brutal rainbow abstraction, smothering the Rock idiom in hyperaccelerated bioluminescent hysteria!

Formed in 2014 with the initial aim of marrying the dislocated rhythms of no-wave and noise rock with the deranged frenetix of early Carcass and churning it out with the intensity of extreme free-jazz and punk.

Guttersnipe have slowly developed into a brutalist power duo, hucking absurdist yelping and electro shock riffs across a skree of Moiré-ing patterns with the time dial set to 'loose', resulting in a sound simultaneously uplifting and terrifying.

Described oddly accurately by Rolling Stone as "sheer chaos, spurts played with hardcore abandon by kids into Sun Ra and Beefheart and death metal, a Xenakis composition as a loft band".
