Okay, the first moment of “Cartoon Darkness” is a man who didn’t show up. The man came out to the office in regengraue Sadness getreten and “AAAARRRRR” Fressen sich die Metallischen Guitarriffs from the new albums of Amyl and the Sniffers during the Matschbirne, until there were only 13 seconds of the Frontfrau Amy Taylors Raubeinstimme übertönt werden. “You’re an asshole (…) / I’m always hot (…) / I don’t want to be stuck in this negativity (…)”, brüllt sie und man möchte sagen: Danke, Amy, stimmt! Wobei die Arschlöcher natürlich immer die eteren sind.

For everyone, with the intention of taking care of it, I am so sure that I have a signature mode worldwide, that Amyl and the Sniffers the Band, man cannot ignore completely. The Australian Quartet makes punk, the best of the best of the 2000s.

At a WG in Melbourne, the band was started by Amy Taylor with guitarist Declan Martens, bassist Fergus Romer and drummer Bryce Wilson. The name of the group comes from the Popperswirkstoff “Amylnitrit” zurück, der beim Schnüffeln einen heftigen Kick verursacht. “Cartoon Darkness”, produced by Nick Launay, is his studio album.

Sängerin Taylor, 28, lives in a small town two hippies and autotoprolls auf, he is. A biographical detail, which appears here, shows that Amyl and the Sniffers present a broader, more instinctive world in their unique music. Das chieht allerdings nie, ohne ihr eine Portion schnoddrigen Pragmatismus entgegenzusetzen.

In the album Debütalbum (2019) it is not yet so resolved, but in “Comfort to Me” (2021) it says: “Guided by the angels / But they are not celestial / They are on my body and they guide me. “Mit anderen Worten: Engel meinetwegen, aber bitte nur welche, die man self erfunden hat. Another botschaft, which was created by the Gesamtwerk, says: “My body, my choice” – and has nothing else, like the one that played the role of Donald Trump in its propaganda.

Konzerte mit biernassen Menschen

Amyl and the Sniffers sings for “Freaks,” so he also has a song, and ladies: Women, Outlaws, Men with migrationsgeschichte, trans Personen… Then: “Everyone in the room deserves to have fun. »And this is also the case for them. Konzerten, wo biernasse Menschen wie extrem fröhliche Protonen gegeneinander knallen, mais keine Angst haben müssen, dass da plötzlich eine Hand an ihrem Hintern ist, die da nicht hingehört.

And Amy Taylor is a little Energieball, who is there for a viel zu zart et sehnig ist ball. It’s more like Blitz and Donner and their old nackte Haut. It is a sound machine that provokes anxiety from aggression from the outside world. And if it is one thing, the flight of the urvertrauen in the hands is effective, because of the positive obstacles, which prepare oneself, davontragen zu lassen.

Während Amyl and the Sniffers est comme le Geheimtipp galten, sind ihre Konzerte mittlerweile schnell ausverkauft. For their music, they have received various Australian music awards, the Aria Awards. I’m also very comfortable with Amy Taylors collaboration with Sleaford mods. Das Gute is also: Nichts an ihr und ihren Boys ist lieblich. Sie tragen wasserstoffblonde 80er-Jahre-Frisen, Glatze, campes Make-up et durchdringen complizierte Liebesgeschichten vermutlich besser as so handled Achtsamkeitscoach, wie your Song “Chewing Gum” von 2024 beweist.

The sound of “Cartoon Darkness” is meant to, without a doubt, be in your face, at the same time as the flow of emotions is very strong and runs like another stream of consciousness. Vorzugsweise im “Tiny Bikini”: “Ooh, if I didn’t appear in something spicy / The cold world would seem even colder to me.” , Taylor says in “Big Dreams”: “Breathe and pull yourself together. »Deal.
