Total carnage and garage rock riffs with splintering drums set the backbone for the songs of London duo FRIENDSHIP. Will de Witt (guitar, bass, loops) and Daniel Hills (drums, vocals) formed the band in 2007 and this April released a split 7″ with Die! Die! Die! after opening for them in Shoreditch last year. Released on Too Pure’s singles club, the 7″ features FRIENDSHIP’s ‘Lifeguard’ backed with D!D!D!’s ‘We Built Our Own Oppressors’. The duo’s sound varies from high intensity punk with dance intentions to more slow burning shoegaze. 2009 single ‘The Graveyard Shift’ uses tropical guitar melodies, heavy driving rhythms and quasi-cyborg vocals elsewhere heard in peer two piece powerhouse Death From Above 1979
Nice mix from RCRDLBL’s production team, with contributions from Dead Meadow and Die!Die!Die!.
