ALBUM REVIEW: Pure Adult – Pure Adult II

Fat Cat Records

Released: 27.01.23

Idles are big fans of Pure Adult, an American East Coast band, born from the mind of a former pseudo-cult member Jeremy Snyder and burgeoning into a premier avant-garde noise outfit with Bianca Abarca, this is their first long player, a much anticipated follow up to their blistering debut EP back in 2019. 

It’s a subversive assault on the senses; dissonant twists and turns, abstract noises, belting guitars and percussion, dub easy beats that daze you, coaxing the unwary listener into a paranoiac state only then to be kicked in the aurals! Pure Adult II will keep you guessing about where is it going next, wide-eyed in the tenebrific gloom and scaldingly lit by idealistic cynicism. Anticipate the live spectacle.
