Birmingham five-piece <a href="/tags/flesh-creep">Flesh Creep</a> release <em>Glimmer</em>, a six-track EP combining hardcore aggression, emotional pressure and riffs designed to test whether the listener’s furniture was properly assembled. Tracks including 'Flake', 'Bubblegum', 'Cheap Heat', 'Straight Flush', 'Optics' and the title song create a compact statement.
The band describes itself as friendly people making unfriendly music, and that description fits perfectly. Beneath the breakdowns and shouted vocals is a genuine sense of enthusiasm, community and purpose rather than empty hostility.
<em>Glimmer</em> arrives through <a href="/tags/music-for-nations">Music For Nations</a> and follows the wider attention generated by the band’s debut album. The EP’s title suggests a small light visible through darkness. Flesh Creep approach that light by sprinting directly toward it while carrying several amplifiers.
