I’m never too far away from music while I’m working because it’s complimentary to the creative process. I’ve been so knee deep in the DJ set these days that I’ve forgotten about my true love for dirty, grungy guitar sounds. While on the hunt for new music to satisfy my hunger, I ran across a few bands that really stood out. One is Cut Off Your Hands hailing from Auckland, New Zealand. The band has been spending the better half of last year releasing EPs and touring with bands like Bloc Party, Ratatat, and We Are Scientist. I’m a sucker for Gang of Four’s “Solid Gold” and Bloc Party’s “Silent Alarm” sound and that’s why I found myself playing these guys on repeat. They are currently in the studio working on their full length album.
