White Ring, “Suffocation” MP3

story Sam Hockley-Smith

Rather than debate over whether we can actually get into this White Ring song because it sounds a lot like the stuff Salem has been doing, we’re just going to post it because it is a jam. Mixing Salem’s penchant for drum machine snap combined with the murky dregs of a shitty keyboard, White Ring tighten the blurred edges, keeping things sharp with some Karen O-influenced snarls. Kind of Salem part two, or maybe just another unrelated excursion into the depths of a still-nascent genre. Either way, when can we get a band that’s cool with wearing Dracula capes?
