Toronto, Canada’s noise/post-punk act CHAMPION LOVER have unveiled a full stream of their upcoming self-titled album, to be released on June 20th! Listen below.
I am starting to wonder what is in the water now that all global warming is melting all the snow in Canada because the rock-n-roll that is starting to come down by the likes ofย Champion Loverย is getting meaner and darker. The Toronto based noise punks have their scopes set on getting you fucked-up a lot which weโre totally fine with being that weโre in New Jersey and our home stateโs super hero is The Toxic Avenger. This is a monster sized caliber release with jagged distortion episodes that manage to get inside your worst dreams. At other times pretty trippyย power psyche(yea we said this) where the bassiness will make your bad day get worse. Pounding you with the opener โRead my Mindโ and wipe off the blood with โShe Likes Wu-Tangโ; these are the real champions on this debut. The last track โVacant Heart (Spring Break)โ is what we can only imagine is a bad trip gone completely sour. So put your head in the barrel on theirย bandcampย to dose yourself. You might not need drugs listening to them because they are drug rock and will make you scrape your face-off.ย RIYL:ย Weekend, Sonic Youth, Place to Burry Strangers / Review Stalker
