The Leeds-based art-rock trio, Mush release their feverish second album, which finds the group recruiting Lee Smith (The Cribs, Pulled Apart By Horses) on mixing duties. ‘Lines Redacted’ is a sound that blurs the lines of abstract surrealism, existentialism and social commentary; utilising guitars as tools in 2020 to stave off malaise whilst simultaneously commenting on the nation’s ability to fall into such dire straits. It’s a sensory overload of wiry tones that zig-zag between punk, prog and sardonic-funk with a relentless ability to reflect society’s faults and apathy in a unique and acerbic manner.
