This young British art-punk five-piece revel in taut chaos and wry lyrics on their debut EP, Eazy Peazy

It was only last year that their lineup took root, with the addition of pianist Emmie-Mae Avery, drummer Lola Cherry and violinist Clio Starwood. Ode to Clio, a standout from the band’s debut EP, Eazy Peazy, is captivating: it begins gently, then expands and ebbs before its epic finale, a violin-driven punk-rock blitz. From the madcap imagery of Ode to Clio (“She’s only arms and legs, her limbs like hairs, spread out starfish”) to the dry lyricism of high-school themed Sports Day(“I’m sorry I dropped the baton, I’m just, I’m not that fast”), you get the sense that this wry young band’s chainsaw might be more playful prop than grisly murdering machine.
