Snake Apartment - Paint the Walls

“Here's a small glimmer of hope for middle aged losers who enjoy late Black Flag, Flipper, Brainbombs, Drunks With Guns, God Bullies, and TAD, and neo hipsters and indie label CEOs falling over themselves with glee over bands like Pissed Jeans, Clockcleaner, and Nirvana..” ~Parts Unknown

That glimmer of hope would be Providence, Rhode Island’s Snake Apartment and while I may not be quite middle aged yet; I am definitely a loser that enjoys all of the bands mentioned in the quote above. So with that said, it should be to no ones surprise that I find Snake Apartment’s latest release Paint the Walls to be one of the scuzziest and filthiest sounding records I’ve heard this year. That means it’s good, real fucking good. This is undoubtedly for every lover of noise-rock out there and for those that can’t get enough of that thick, muddy, and dirty sounding distortion. On Paint the Walls Snake Apartment sound like they are living out the AmRep heydays all over again and by god I hope no one gets in their way, because the more of this sort of material the better. But anyway, there are ton of good things to say about this LP; however I won’t spend an eternity boring everyone with that. Just check out the tunes people.
