CIVIC: FUTURE FORECAST Vinyl LP

Melbourne has always punched above its weight in punk, and CIVIC are proof the tradition isn't going anywhere. Future Forecast is the kind of record that makes you want to kick over a monitor, in the best possible way.

Raw, relentless, and clocking in at a pace that leaves no room for second-guessing, CIVIC channel the frantic energy of early Aussie hardcore and garage punk without sounding like a history lesson. They've toured internationally, earned serious column inches in the UK press, and still sound like they'd play a sweat-soaked 100-cap room without blinking. This LP belongs in your collection alongside Amyl and the Sniffers and Cosmic Psychos, and you already know that's high praise.
