The latest blast of analog Dunedin comes from the band that refused to be left behind. Although featuring guitarist/vocalist Hope Robertson and bassist/vocalist Lucinda King of Death And The Maiden, along with Shifting Sands guitarist Mike McLeod (on drums here), Bad Sav is the primary strain, predating both of those bands. When asked to describe her band's sound in a 2010 interview, Hope suggested "... a missed punch and a grazed fist. Sad, heavy, unpredictable loud pop." Indeed, Bad Sav offer a far more guitar-oriented hard attack than DATM; their distinctive filtering and reassembly of influences from shoegaze, psychedelic noise-rock -- and goodness knows what else -- are combined using a uniquely electrified Dunedin sonic alchemy, bursting with colossal, majestic, melodic noise.
