CIVIC - Chrome Dipped LP (colour vinyl)

Australian exclusive tri-colour vinyl. CD also available.

Highly recommended.

One of the most exhilarating bands in recent years, CIVIC reimagine proto-punk for an era of endless uncertainty. On their new album they push themselves and their sound even further.

The title speaks to a desire to break down barriers. “I like the idea of Chrome Dipped being a mind set. It’s like a casting of your character, or like an outer shell. One of the main objectives for this album was to make a drastic turn in our sound. Break the mold, melt the steel."

"If you’re into the genre-jumping tension of Iceage, the scorched fuzz of METZ, or the sneering swagger of early Social Distortion, this one’s in your lane. Fans of The Birthday Party, Protomartyr, and IDLES will hear echoes too. There’s also a crossover appeal for listeners drawn to the more cerebral side of punk, like Total Control or the darker edges of the UK’s current post-punk scene." - The Fire Note
