PUFF, Berlin-based synth-punk cell rocks hard, leaving aside sound texture and other trifles. PUFF is featuring maybe a live drummer or live drum machine, gutter lyrics, bluesy MS20 and chainsaw guitar. Australia’s AUSMUTEANTS aren’t making politically militant or socially conscious songs – they’re delinquents indulging in low-hanging fruit, writing about stepping in shit and pissing your pants. They’re students of DEVO, the SCREAMERS, and CHROME.
