Our Take
Our Take
Man, oh man, does the new IST IST album "Protagonists" pack a punch. This Manchester-based band has crafted an album that is as dark and brooding as a moody British summer day. The post-punk vibes are strong with this one, as the band effortlessly blends haunting melodies with pulsating rhythms.
From the opening track "You're Mine", you can tell that IST IST are not here to play around. The driving bass lines and the swirling guitar riffs hook you in immediately, setting the tone for what is to come. Lead singer Adam Hajo's deep, emotive vocals add a sense of urgency and intensity to each track, making it impossible to look away.
Standout tracks like "Silences" and "Wolves" showcase the band's ability to create atmosphere and tension with their music. The haunting lyrics and powerful instrumentation come together to create a truly immersive listening experience.
"Protagonists" is a masterclass in modern post-punk, with IST IST proving themselves to be a formidable force in the UK music scene. So grab your leather jacket, turn up the volume, and let IST IST take you on a sonic journey that you won't soon forget. Trust me, this is one album you don't want to sleep on.
