Album Review: The Pro-Tools - Misanthro-PC

This Adelaide punk outfit deliver your run-of-the-mill, screeching pub-rock release. Their wailing guitar solos are technically impressive but lack imagination, a problem which dominates each aspect of the EP. Their lyrical content and choice of song titles aren't exactly subtle. Kicking off with opener, You Make Me Wanna Cheat On My Girlfriend, their raw, rowdy approach is stepped up in Sympathy Root, with its shouts of “All I wanted was love, love, love/Instead I got a blow-job”. Ultimately, their grimy aesthetic, grating vocals and bashing of cymbals culminate in something a horny Oscar the Grouch would produce.
