Rated: *****

 

The Melbourne three-piece Wicked City released their newest album Worsted Yarn in November 2013 and we’ve been hooked on it ever since. Cause it’s the haphazardous rhythm and grungy feel that’s addictive and that rhythm seeps into your hand. Speed the rhythm, speed the band. And you feel like you’re lost under a bright amphetamine sky. But you don’t want to find your way back home you just want to keep wondering that wicked place. Where the thick and filthy riffs pull you ever further towards the gutter and the melody is the none so straight line you walk on; constantly almost toppling over. Crashing drums that wreak havoc together with these thundering basslines and vocals that just make you have these terrifying dreams from which you wake up drenched in sweat. Diverse, intense, unpredictable and simply brilliant. This is one of those bands that will never make it big; because they’re too good and will never compromise… That's it... I’m moving to Melbourne…
