So, what would you maniacs like to do first?

So, Does it Offend You, Yeah? Their name sounds like something created by Nathan Barley, and they also to be honest sound like they may just have put together by a bunch of hoxton 'creatives' with too much time and too few brains.



But suspicions of some industry joke aside, you can't deny the hard rocking riffs, daft punk vocoder sounds and crunching beats of forthcoming single 'Weird Science'. The more I listen the more I realise that it is, in fact, 'well weapon'. I'd actually go as far as to say that it's totally fucking Mexico.

DOES IT OFFEND YOU, YEAH? - WEIRD SCIENCE


The big news for next week is a new 'is it is or is it ain't AFX' release on Rephlex. The hand of Richard d. James has been rumoured to be involved in countless Rephlex (and Warp) releases over the years, and it usually turns out to be someone else entirely (Rubber Johnny, Bogdan Racynzski & Ovuca for example).

Listening to this new single by The Tuss however, has me 95% convinced that we do in fact have some Aphex Acid. The tracks are an obvious continuation from 2005's Analord series, and another clue lies in the fact that 'Tuss' is Cornish slang for an erection! The track titles and label photography also scream 'Analord'.



This is track 2 from the EP... make your own mind up. I think it's pretty wonderful stuff either way.

THE TUSS - ALSPACKA

Buy it from Warpmart.
