Demdike Stare return to Modern Love with their first release on the label since 2018. The A-side features vocals from Alice Merida Richards. Edition of 500 copies, comes with a holographic Modern Love sticker. Mastered and cut by Rashad Becker. Both cuts find Demdike in wickedly rambunctious mood, the A-side "Junk" weaving gated filters and squashed subs into the gynoid vocal delivery of Alice Merida Richards, formerly of baroque pop band Virginia Wing, and here giving it a full Nico via Trish Keenan thing. Imagine the Chain Reaction label doing monochrome, mutant pop, and you're just about there. "Tuff Crew" on the flip sees the duo panel-beating sheet noise, gnashing drums and hyperpop hiccups into a seething industrial dancehall swivel made to swarm warehouses with its dizzying stereo diffusions. Hands down some of their best gear, play extra loud for the full madness.
