Intro5pect

Intro5pect draws evenly on its influences of Old school punk/Oi! and its newer roots in breakbeat to create an intense, energetic musical base. Drawing from the band's early peacepunk influences are the sarcastic socio-political lyrics cast into choruses just meant to be sung along with.

Black Math

With their drum-machine-powered, infectious fuzzed-out goth, Black Math bring to mind the Jesus and Mary Chain (or, if you ask them, Siouxsie and the Banshees), but with more layers to pick apart. Xina’s vocals float like the open sky above dark clouds, and she plays the cello! Jimmy’s synth and sharp drum patterns bring a shadowy dark-wave element, while Andrew’s wall-of-sound guitar harkens back to the aforementioned 1980s shoegazers.
