IRK / WREN SPLIT (2015)

Hey its Irk! From Leeds, UK. I've featured those guys here on the blog before. Right here. Good shit.
So this is their newest recording, a 7-song split with a band called Wren from London, UK. Yes!

Irk continues with the straight ahead heavy and crushing noise rock, similar to KEN mode, or Daughters. 4 songs by them, although one is a spoken word over textural soundscapey kinda deal.

Wren play a more progressive/experimental, quiet with heavy sound ping pong...very similar to Isis...er, excuse me...Isis the Band. Don't want anyone coming after me... Sheesh that was close. 3 slabs of rage from them.

And 2 link choices below! I suggest trying them both.

IRK - BREAD AND HONEY EP (2014)

Heavy. Check.
Noisy. Check.
Sludgy. Check.
Head and chest vibrating. Check and Check.
Irk is noise rock goodness from Leeds, West Yorkshire. A 3 piece shredding out 3 songs here. They definitely build castles in the same sandbox as Ken Mode, Baptists, These Arms are Snakes, or Daughters.
As one of their songs says...you're welcome.
