Cold Pumas
Mon 14 Jun 2010
No Soup For You
Like the self-combusting Explode Into Colors, the visceral Foot Village, or even the viscious HEALTH, Cold Pumas exorcise their daily malaise in extended mutant dance, post punk and psychedelic hardcore. Their songs are jittery, anxious cliffhangers that transform you into an overstimulated mess the more you listen to them. ‘Altered Yeast’ is mile-a-minute, edge-of-your-seat song with barely a breath of vocals amidst a chorus of pummeling guitars and drums. Meteoric rhythms jump-start cyclical guitar notes in ‘Party Trip’ in the style of a stuck krautrock record. The inventive, self-corrective melodies of ‘Beat Mystery’ interlock awkwardly and uniquely, but ‘Jela’ is the real deal, it will make you feel like you’re having really enjoyable heart palpitations. Cold Pumas have released a 12″, a now sold out split 7″ with Male Bonding and most recently, a two track 7″ on Upset The Rhythm in April. There are also splits planned for the future with Women, Fair Ohs and Friendo.
