Future Punx


Future Punx are riding the high of 70's post-punk in a way that few are with such pure immersion these days. Plenty have found ways to incorporate the trappings of the genre into their work but the Punx divine the nervy, jerky dance and smash of influences with the same palpable excitement of their forebears; sounding ripped out of time. They've admitted to a love affair with Fear of Music and David Byrne's fingerprints are fresh in the heart of This is Post-Wave, but they also capture the raw funk hangover and stark minimalism of other luminaries of the era, namely ESG and Medium Medium. The mood is celebratory, but in a way that seems less purely joyful and more in the mood of dancing to spite the forces that told them they couldn't. Its a dark, cathartic grind that's more for your chagrin than for their levity. And this is certainly a good time to dance it off in someone's face. Its a perfect time and place for the raw nerve of post-punk to rear its head amid the social rot to our collective teeth.
