TERMINAL ESCAPE: BASEMENT RAT


 

BASEMENT RAT are glorious. A lumbering, lurching angst filled collection of disjointed punk stomps delivered with pure honesty…and it’s the honesty that becomes the real focus. While “Tristeza” is the standout track for me – an awkward slow start that gives way to a song written to be played just a little faster than the band can successfully muster – every song on Pura Mujer is intense and real.  It doesn’t always have to be pretty…but it always has to be honest. How long has it been since you listened to a band that made you think about Surfer Rosa and SPITBOY? It’s a shame this recording is all I can find.
