VIAGRA BOYS Viagra Boys CD

Stockholm sent us their weirdest export and we are genuinely better for it. Viagra Boys arrived sounding like a post-punk fever dream, the kind of band that makes you think someone fed a crate of Wire records and a bucket of cheap lager into a blender and hit go.

This self-titled collection is the essential document for getting into them, the serrated guitar lines, Sebastian Murphy's deadpan drawl, the lurching rhythms that sit somewhere between industrial and the dancefloor at 2am when everyone's too tired to pretend they know what genre this is. Post-punk and dance-punk in the purest sense, music that is antagonistic and funny and weirdly physical all at once. If you've been sleeping on Viagra Boys, this is the one to start with. If you haven't been sleeping on them, you already know.
