MISHKA on LOST TRIBE;
You Should be Listening to… Lost Tribe
”(…)I find a bit more interesting with what Lost Tribe is doing. The vibe you get when playing their demo or full length LP (out now via Blind Prophet Records) isn’t that of youth, it’s something way darker and much more cynical. Instead of songs being pure three minute blasts one after another, they pay off is the depth within these songs.
I have yet to see Lost Tribe live, but from the videos I’ve seen it’s not only more aggressive, but also a sense or urgency I haven’t seen in a punk band in a very long time. It’s almost as if each song is their last and this is the finish line for them. While they certainly aren’t trying to pull the “Mysterious Guy/Messageboard Hardcore” card, it still is hard to come by a lot of information from them. Honestly, that’s kind of refreshing, not because it’s mysterious, but because they let the music do the talking for them.” full review;

Iceage
A smart young punk band pushing out its life force, conceptually inspired but deep into a throwaway mood, condensing the entire clatter and tumble of its ensemble sound in every bar: we’re lucky to hear that. It usually comes on a first album; it usually only happens this way once. It happened a lot in 1977 — Wire’s “Pink Flag,” Pere Ubu’s “Modern Dance,” the Homosexuals’ “Record.” Iceage, a teenage band from Copenhagen that writes songs in English, has made in “New Brigade” an album a bit like those, with songs like chains of hooks that they’ve connected by sheer force of will.
