SORRY STATE SAYS - These four tracks take stylistic cues from early Wire, with the opening track, “No Pasaran” in the proto-hardcore / fast art punk vein a la “12XU” and subsequent tracks leaning more toward the pop-inflected songs on Pink Flag like “Mannequin” or “Fragile.” The band that Rifle really reminds me of, though, is the Shitty Limits, who also took a lot from early Wire but also encompassed retro 80s hardcore and 90s budget rock, all with a liberal dash of British grayness (or, more appropriately, greyness). This style is like musical comfort food to me, a bunch of things I like all thrown together into a rich and satisfying stew that makes me feel ready to face the world. A killer tape, and I hope we hear more from this band.
