Truckers Of Husk – Physical Education

Truckers of Husk flex a muscle of such experimental might, that any kind of categorisation would be difficult and probably futile. Some would tag it as “math rock” but, frankly, this term is mainly bollocks.

On opening track, ‘The Odd Modern’, intricate guitars flow and swell into bulging crescendos of, well, noise. But good noise, noise that makes me want to watch ‘Escape to Victory’ and punch Sylvester Stallone in the balls. As the backdrop twists and rotates, stuttering breaks and pauses divide complex rhythms into crunching towers of sound. Occasionally, the EP produces seemingly effortless moments of looping beauty, such as the last minute of Cookie Cool and the Candy Mob, and comparisons with Mogwai are unavoidable. But these sit in perfect contrast with the epic moments of planet crushing power and raise them above any such lazy comparison. Perhaps the standout track is ‘Panther Party’ which sounds like the inside of the computer from Tron being run over by a car.
