Susu: Win

This EP showcases a woefully undermentioned band that's resurrecting a more abrasive aspect of the post-punk sound. Susu draw obvious comparisons to early Sonic Youth, but Public Image Ltd. might be closer to the truth. Win has been criticized for being too reminiscent of a particular sound from the past. Has it been done before? Sure, but rarely this well, even in the 80s. This might be blasphemous, but I must admit I like Win better than some of the canonical albums of the era. Susu are definitely a band worth watching.
