Editrix Tell Me I'm Bad

Rather than get stuck in the miasma of genre definitions while the world burns, Editrix have crafted nihilistic anthems that embrace familiar and fun pop songwriting even as it crumbles to bits. Their debut album, 'Tell Me I'm Bad', darts between apocalyptic love song and ethical quandary, playfully picking from and decimating influences ranging from Anthony Braxton to Captain Beefheart along the way. Rather than bridging the gaps between party rock, noise, jazz, and prog, the resultant 'avant butt rock' rabble-rousing moves in pocket dimensions between them. 'Tell Me I'm Bad' excels at heady duality because of Editrix's ability to blend sublime technical ability with straight-to-the-nerves performance.
