SHE REX Release Debut EP This Friday
After an eon of surging up from the primeval sludge, shedding skin and sharpening teeth, SHE REX have arrived, releasing their debut self-titled EP this Friday September 6.
Partially recorded in the halls of the iconic Studios 301, the result is a seething storm of Sarah’s skilful manipulation of keys, soulful vocals and creation of lush dirty synth (spanning everything from the Minimoog, Korg MS-20 to Juno 60, to the organ and a 1950s clavioline, to that old standard, the piano), Darcie’s use of the fuzzy tube amp sound and a truly formidable array of effects, Tash’s tricky ticking hi-hats and sneaky snares, banging out on a vintage Ludwig bass drum, all topped off with Nikkita’s frenzied flow mixed with fervent vocals. From the relentless churn of lead single P.O.W.E.R., to the grit of Get Yours, to the clever clash of The Heist, the EP rages on with themes of strength, human history and power. It pierces the soft underbelly of the pedestrian and the predictable, smashing together the influence of Blakroc, M.I.A., Queens of the Stone Age and John Lennon into something unprecedented and undeniably SHE REX.
The band has been inciting hype with their previous singles and meteoric live show, supporting the likes of Children Collide, Regular John, Dune Rats, Sticky Fingers, The Preatures and True Vibenation, and most recently championing a much-lauded headlining residency at the Oxford Arts Factory Gallery Bar.
Queen Regents of rage-on-fire and the sickest beats and slickest rhymes, the SHE REX reign is upon us.
