HEADS. 'Push'
'Push' from the Berlin HEADS. is the successor to the album 'Collider', which was celebrated by fans and press alike. Intro Magazin described it as “the dark, strange, unapproachable musical equivalent of Kafka's most exhausting fragment of the novel, The Castle.” The trio from Berlin and Melbourne present a fascinating mix of noise rock, post-punk, and alternative rock on 'Push', with Ed Fraser’s voice rising above their raw, immersive sound.
The patience-testing, noisy heaviness of their previous works matures here into a more complex composition of experimental and wild sounds—radical yet catchy. The album channels elements of ’90s noise rock heroes like The Jesus Lizard and TAR while incorporating the experimental force of Lysistrata, the cool detachment of Protomartyr, and the stoic power of modern post-punk. Produced in Berlin by Kadavar’s Christoph Bartelt, with mixing and mastering by Magnus Lindberg (Refused, Cult of Luna), 'Push' also features guest musicians such as Swans' lap steel guitarist Kristof Hahn, Matthias Feit (Radare), and Markus E. Lipka (Eisenvater).
