Lo-fi is currently very en vogue, but the flaw of any emerging scene is that, once the door is opened, all and sundry can stroll through with a roughly crafted demo and command undue attention from slathering labels.
Trash Kit, however, are one of the good ones. The release of their self-titled debut on local indie Upset the Rhythm supports their case. While it's defiantly ramshackle and chaotic, there's a wild energy and melody to be found among the fuzz and reverb that sets the girls above their peers. No more so than on Cadets, its tribal drums and war cries acting as an unrelenting call to arms for those tired of polished pop.
