A-Frames are a fascinating oxymoron – a sci-fi obsessed band with futuristic Kraftwerkian lyrics who sound like complete technophobes, with not a single apparent electron of digital processing. Instead, they mix hard-hitting drums and bass reminiscent of Shellac and Gang Of Four with raggedly repetitive Fall guitar riffs, spare Wire-y arrangements and Erin Sullivan’s deadpan, nearly elegant Ian Curtis vocals. Could be a drag, but it’s actually a blast. This rocks in its own unique groove, satisfying that itch that Brainiac and Six Finger Satellite teasingly tickled a decade ago.
