Split by Psychic Graveyard & USA Nails

UK and EUROPE - To order, please visit box-records.com/

The “in-name only” United States and Kingdom’s divisions are more raw and splintered than ever before. And it's from this place of division that the USA’s PSYCHIC GRAVEYARD and SKiN GRAFT Records have joined with the UK’s USA NAILS and BOX Records to form “Split”.

Having been remixed by the likes of MSTRKRFT and LIARS, Psychic Graveyard are no strangers to collaboration. Here they determinedly ease layer upon cacophonous layer to their methodically set stage before burning it to the ground.

The cuts served up by slabby noise-rock /angular post-punk /dissonant no-wave cognoscenti USA Nails feature notes that work, notes that don't work, wonky ping-pong guitars and shitty solos while musing over clinically medicated anxiety, internet commentators and Orwellian data practices. Although he didn't realize it at the time, drummer Tom Brewins broke his arm just before the band recorded.

He got better, but maybe the rest of us won't.

PSYCHIC GRAVEYARD PRESS:

"Deranged genius from former members of Arab on Radar and Some Girls.”- REVOLVER Magazine

(On Eric Paul’s lyrical invention) "This guy’s solipsistic… his mind orbiting another planet- the mix unevenly doubling his inner monologues. Synth player Nathan Joyner, guitarist Paul Vieira, and drummer Charles Ovett all up the psychodrama by savage degrees, leading off with a grinding, foghorn dirge that eventually expands into a punishing industrial hailstorm." - SPIN

"If the music itself isn't in retreat from society, then society backs away from it." - The WIRE

USA NAILS PRESS:
----------------------------------------
""….have proven themselves a raucous, abrasive, and scathing band - difficult to pigeonhole into a single genre. There is something about USA Nails that feels super British. Not in a pompous, patriotic way - it’s more how the band capture a sense the mundane and the monotonous and make it feel bitingly nasty." - DISTORTED SOUND

"A mix of Drive Like Jehu headbangers, nods to psychedelia and a throttling of hardcore (that takes on ) a red-eyed life of its own; roadworn and irritated, its rabid face pressed against the glass.” - The SKiNNY MAGAZINE

"Heavy, crushing, and aggressive." - The NEEDLE DROP
