Details
Extracting themselves from the dumpsters of Austin, Texas to create their “paranoid art punk”, No Wave sound – SPRAY PAINT once again present the atonal throb “post-punk workouts” they do so well, this time with some kraut drum beats thrown in for good measure. With two albums on S-S Records in 2013 and Clean Blood, Regular Acid released Oct ’14, all of which appeared regularly on end-of-year lists – SPRAY PAINT’s fourth album, Punters On a Barge, is released June 1st on Homeless. Touring the USA with Parquet Courts and Protomartyr and frequent tours of the States that have included two invitations to play Gonerfest (Memphis), plus the annual SXSW gathering in home town of Austin, TX. Toured Europe Nov’ 14 & will play Japan/Australia June ‘15, see them before the inevitable big time hits. “Parquet Courts are the light; Pile lurk in the dappled shadows; and Spray Paint twitch and mewl in the darkness, seemingly lost of faculties, ranting pitch black platitudes.” - SONIC MASALA “nerdy art punk” – BROOKLYN VEGAN “delivered with a masterfully executed sense of boredom and sing-songy disgust, reminds of the classic art-punk of LA’s Urinals” – CHICAGO READER “rebellious guitar riffs and punky kraut drum beats” – EARBUDDY “minimalist style and penchant for obscure, foreboding lyrics” – IMPOSE

'the trio's frantic rants glisten with sweat generated by decades of post-punk workouts.
That sweat also pushes them beyond mimicry. The exhilarating execution of their taut-yet-rubbery songs puts Spray Paint?s music squarely in the present tense.? ? PITCHFORK
