A.R.E. Weapons

(Rough Trade)
by Lex Marburger

These guys are “not” electroclash. So they say. Funny, I didn’t realize the rulebook had come out yet. Drum machines, keyboard, guitar, snotty vocals, NYC. You make the call. In all fairness, A.R.E Weapons are pretty good, they certainly sound better than most. Reminds me of Automatic Head Detonator, if you substituted sludge for sophistication.
