West Yorkshire's musical concoction, The Würmen, unleashes "Vas Deferens," a four-track EP brimming with raw, experimental energy that pulls you into its whirlwind of sounds.
Featuring Ben on guitar/vocals, Liam on bass/vocals, and Dave on percussion, the Würmen craft an audacious blend that invokes shades of Squid, Gang of Four, The Hives, and even hints of Black Flag and The Rapture. This EP is a cocktail of sonic influences that feels both refreshing and thrilling.
Each track dances along the edges of experimentation, from the danceable yet edgy "Ceiling Funny" to the enigmatic "Remediation Policy." The guitars wield a chaotic allure, urging you to embrace the futility of existence while the rhythm section grounds the chaos with a steady, sensible beat.
The EP's visceral nature doesn't shy away from dirty, gritty textures. It's an artistic tantrum—like stabbing a pencil into a table, tearing paper into the air, and celebrating the chaos as art. The guitars evoke a controlled fury that's oddly satisfying.
As an early offering, "Vas Deferens" sets a high standard for future releases. The dual vocals by Liam and Ben add depth, but their potential to diversify emotions and narratives feels promising, especially evident in "Ceiling Funny," hinting at a promising evolution.
Last words:
The Würmen's 'Vas Deferens' is a whirlwind of sounds—an experimental symphony that invites chaos, celebrates artistry, and leaves us eagerly anticipating the band's evolution in the realm of post-punk revival.
