Album Review
Japanese Voyeurs – Get Hole
Pitching a tent in the middle ground between the fervid touch of The Distillers and the grinding provocative rock edge of Queen Adreena sees the lurid, atmospheric London rockers, Japanese Voyeurs, who are building up to their UK tour with Black Spiders through this mini epic release of grind and provocation, Get Hole.
The ever imposing Romily Alice, leads from the front with her raunchy, slightly intoxicated vocal drawl. She exposes a player with vim and vigour. Steve Wilson’s eerily stepping percussive touches and the twisting bass of Johnny Seymour, dissects the song. The disco rocking instrumental element takes on a life of its own in-between the vocals. Japanese Voyeurs have another number that will take on new life in a live setting and enhance their reputation as gripping performers.
Rating: 3.5/5
