FAKE INDIANS, “LIDL FUCKS”

Belgium’s Fake Indians waste little time setting the tone of “Lidl Fucks,” a heavy, hypnotic headbanger off their debut album. The track’s urgent rhythm is shepherded in by the harsh squeals of speaker feedback and craggy guitar, with fat bass and megaphone vocals not far behind to fill out the jagged soundscape. This sonic barrage—part industrial, part psychedelic, all decidedly lo-fi—is a key factor in the success of the track. Staying true to their anarchic ethos, Fake Indians offer little in the way of entry points to their audience, instead opting to layer sounds and screeches into an overwhelming noise rock opus.
