C.Y.S.L.A.B.F.

Mika Miko and label Kill Rock Stars are a perfect match. After all, the band's debut album buzzes with the kind of lo-fi art punk upon which the label’s legacy rests. In 20 chaotic minutes, they flail their way through thorny disco skronk (“Capricorinations”), buzz-saw rage that falls between riot grrrl and hardcore (“End of Time”), and noise rock splashed with pop hooks (“Business Cats”). The group’s manic energy is infectious, even when they’re blasting faces full of squealing feedback and bratty shrieks.
