Steven Smith you deserve violence in the best way possible... feel it here! be one with the abuser... we are all the victor, the one who hurts others and/or ourselves. and it feels so good!

Legendary Tone Ever since I heard this album I've been shitting in my own hands and clapping. Loves It ! Favorite track: Punching Bag.

jckmd A sparkling gem amidst the mostly homogeneous wave of modern noise rock/no wave revival. Thank combines excellent songwriting with a headbang-worthy rhythm section, unhinged yet charismatic vocals, and electronics that sound like recordings from a scrap metal junkyard. Amazing. Favorite track: Taxidermist.

Rrrouse_HD Once I suffered from rickets and the black lung. After just two weeks of taking 'Thank The Universe' before meals, my rickets were cured and my black lung went grey again. Thank you Thank! Favorite track: Thank The Universe.

Lizard Hips This is utterly insane. At times it sounds like Girl Band, but if they played chainsaws. An alienating mess of noise and chaos that somehow works. Favorite track: Fragile Ego.

about

"Fucked up noise rock on the Skingraft/Load axis ala Dazzling Killmen/Arab On Radar but with a distinctly british slump and sneer reminiscent of Swell Maps - abstract dissonant guitars alongside lobotomised drumming and trenchant bass lurch set in sickly motion by caustic vocals." - ARS DIY gigs

"What we have in Sexghost Hellscape is unsurprisingly brilliant. Jarring and noisy as all fuck, it’s the book you can’t put down. Or more likely, the rash you can’t get rid of." - Birthday Cake For Breakfast

"For anyone that's been following the evolutionary trajectory of heavy music in Leeds there has been a movement from noise rock bands to adopt more 'danceable' rhythms in their music. Maybe it's because of the explosion of DIY club nights that cross over with DIY gigs, because Leeds is so small it's easy to be a part of and involved in multiple scenes and be influenced by that. Maybe it was when Hookworms had a baby with Blacklisters and and gave birth to bands like Cattle, ZoZo, Bronzed and Thank. Whatever the catalyst, Thank's 'Sexghost Hellscape' EP feels like an apex in this particular evolutionary leap. But unlike a lot of Leeds noise bands the lyrics are fully audible, and they are truly great and to the bone." - AlgernonCornelius

"If LCD Soundsystem hailed from West Yorkshire and played wonky instruments." - Cruel Nature Records

I love this series because it is so interesting and the first 3 stages are nice to listen to for studying. The music is sad and happy, distorted in parts but real throughout. keenan_bruce

Dances / Curses

A great, muscular, weird rock record from a group showcasing their years of experience playing together. Everyone is locked in, and the songs are tight even at 6, 8 or 16 minutes long. MetalDipshit
