Dundee emo/screamo mercenaries Mercury Tilt Switch give us another slab of crunching guitar riffola from their debut 'Brundle Kid' LP.
Their name suggests all you need to know - something dynamic; electrifying; panoramic. A ramshackle post-hardcore rummage through the nostalgia that the 'new rock revolution' should be pillaging from - think Husker Du; think (although less nostalgically) Braid. 'Radar Response' shows that MTS remember the first rule of rock - it has to ROCK. It wears its heart on its sleeve ("Forget this response/go explOOOORE!") and it's emo-torn jeans and scuffed sneakers with pride. What else can I say....buy this. There's more to come.
