It seems like, for bands like The Cut it's easy to stay in all time creative mode. You can go to a record store and pick any of their records. Clearly recorded. Perfectly played. And quite often, perfectly representing all the best qualities of a band. 'Dead City Nights' is the case when a punk band gets ambitious to get outside of the ageless box of one genre. They don't pretend to follow only Fat Mike's variation of punk rock but take everything from everywhere. Whether these are garagy tonalities of the guitar interplay or some colouring of ska, textural changes and barely heard tonalities of math rock. With the help of the new drummer, Tony Booza, the trio managed to reach out a strong and uncompromising result, within the aesthetics of Italian horror movies.
This album won't break the walls down but definitely would keep all the monsters outside!
