Antique Pony: Gay ghosts (2012)

"I wrote a few months ago about Antique Pony and about how they were gearing up to release a split cassette with Teen Suicide. Cool news, right? Well guess what, that’s not happening anymore because Teen Suicide is dead. Boo hoo. Well, anyways these Scottish noisemakers have carried on in the form of their new cassette EP Gay Ghosts. Further contributing to the burgeoning emo noise scene, these guys have dinged, dented, and scratched their sound up even more than on Museum of Blood. They shout, scream, wail, and bang on their instruments all while recording everything to tape. They even go so far as to incorporate elements of spoken word and degraded clips of sampled dialogue (sound familiar?). It’s a brash release, but it’s also charming with these guys relishing all of their rough edges. Look for the EP to be released on cassette by Hikikomori Family, the band’s new label. PS - I’ve also heard tell of future releases by Heroin Party and UUUUUU from this new startup, so that’s also something to look forward to" (cactus-mouth.tumblr.com)
