Death Racer is the first single from Auckland via Berlin cyborg rockers, Data Animal. The latest signing to Oliver Ackermann's ( A Place to Bury Strangers / Death by Audio) new label, Dedstrange, Data Animal's sound is said to be a mix of the harsher sides of No-Wave, industrial and techno but in rock n roll format. Taking sonic influence from groups like Suicide, Throbbing Gristle, Spaceman 3 and Boris, Death Racer deals with themes of nihilism, narcissism and the death drive within a digital context. Analogue rock is turned into full out digital and chemical annihilation as kick drums slam up giant detuned synths and walls of fuzz. Mastered by NYC noise legend Oliver Ackermann, Death Racer is Data Animal's algorithm bug seeking to destroy.  Death Racer will be out June 22nd. Bad M.F' will follow this on August 3rd and both will be available on an extremely limited 7inch vinyl with a risograph hand-printed poster. Be sure to get in fast as these will sell out.
