"Pixel Picture" review in Necromag

"Techno-punks Junkie Kut dropped their début single ‘Pixel Picture’ on the 25th November. Under the heavy beat of their high bpm rain, the band blend coarse electronic noise with guitars to create something brutal and strewn together in keeping with a sort of post apocalyptic cyberpunk attitude.

Despite a clunky name ‘Pixel Picture’ has sticking power and manages to carve something distinctive out of its rhythmic noise. Backed at its official launch party by Irish noise mongers Drugzilla and their buckfast drenched speedcore, it’s fair to say both bands are tastier to one with a pallet that can stomach their unrelenting drum machine backing. Though Junkie Kut, almost unbelievably for the genre, also evoke a far more emotive sound through their lyrical lamentations.

The act has recently announced intentions for an extensive European tour running from March to August where they will debut material from the upcoming album ‘The Hierarchy Enslaving You (T.H.E.Y)’ which is due for release later this year. If you want to see Junkie Kut play in your town Unrepresented Music invite you to drop them a line at info@unrepresented-music.com and let them know.
