Ex-Cult - "M.P.D." // 7" + s/t LP Out Now On Goner Records by Goner Records published on 2012-09-15T08:24:08Z EX-CULT "M.P.D." b/w "No Fun on the Beaches" (Chosen Few cover) 7" Release Date: Oct. 16th, 2012 Buy s/t LP: http://www.goner-records.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=10266 Ex-Cult's debut LP was produced by Ty Segall & engineered by Eric Bauer at Bauer Mansion in San Francisco. In Memphis in early 2011, five people joined forces to start a punk rock band. They each came from different scenes—hardcore, psychedelic, and various flavors of indie pop. Things gelled. I mean, really came together, man! Following the release of two killer singles under the name Sex Cult, they were faced with a lawsuit from a similarly named and very aggressive techno label in New York City. So Sex Cult became Ex-Cult. Playing a series of house parties and gigs in dive bars, Ex-Cult honed their sound—a punk rock sweet spot that incorporates angular post-punk, flying saucer fuzz guitar, snotty vocals and bash-your-head-in energy. A real stone groove! Killer linear punk à la Wire, Urinals, Australia’s X or something, man! A show at SXSW caught the attention of indie wonderkind Ty Segall, and the two began making plans to record in San Francisco. This is the end result—a debut album that takes the living energy of their show and crams it onto the grooves of an LP. Wild, man! Wild!
