As everyone knows, the best superheroes have a killer origin story

Adebisi Shank are an electric, energetic, loud band from Ireland proving there's more to the artistic,experimental musical nature of their land than just 'charity giving' money grabbers like U2. Taking their cue from acts such as Battles, Oxes and Lite, their debut LP "This is the album of a band called Adebisi Shank" shines through with rays of inventiveness that would teach a few of their contemporaries a thing or two in the art of writing, without ever leaning into the self indulgent persuasions many have fallen ill to when attempting this sort of 'art noise'.
