Urgency Factor

by Flanders

supported by
Scumbag
“Flanders was a Perth band who existed for a far too brief time in the mid-late '90s and released 3 brilliant EPs of pop-hooky alternative rock. This collection represents the second EP (Small Town Big Chip) in its entirety and 5 of the 6 tracks from the third (Mud And Five Ways To Serve It). It's a shame that their first (and best!) EP, Spadework has been left out, but these songs are still great and represent part of the soundtrack of my life in Western Australia in the '90s.”

about

With inescapable hooks that pull like undertow, Flanders rips through ten tracks of timeless, dynamic rock on Urgency Factor...a full-length that pulses with intensity and reckless energy. The band never sacrifices the kinetic, dissonant interplay between the guitars and rhythm section and there's always a tension that builds with the percussive beat quaking beneath the irresistible melodies that will stick in your head for days. Of course, it helps that Luke Bostelman's evocative voice cuts to the heart of these songs, adding a richness that is both immediate and impressive. Flanders confident blend of careening riffs and evocative choruses burst with an enthusiasm and ragged passion rarely attempted, and Urgency Factor reminds us how there's no substitute for amazing songwriting. From Perth, Australia. (DER-474)
