Label Review.
2019 album. Also available on vinyl.
Our Overview.
Meshing dance, punk, disco, R&B and much more for more than 20 years, !!! (or Chk chk chk) return with their eighth album ‘Wallop’, and it’s another stellar addition to the wildly impressive catalogue they’ve built up and stands as a testament to their hardworking approach and ceaseless desire to push things further. Recorded over the past year in lead singer Nic Offer’s Brooklyn apartment, the band pick up where 2017’s ‘Shake The Shudder’ left off, further exploring the fringes of dance music with a focused edge and a care-free spirit.
‘Wallop’ sees friends from across the spectrum appearing on a number of tracks, including Liars frontman Angus Andrew, Maria Uzor of British dance aesthetes Sink Ya Teeth and Glasser’s synth-pop wizard Cameron Mesirow, who all join Offer and !!! covocalist Meah Pace on this barn-burning party of a record. With an array of producers lending a hand, including Cole M.G.N. (Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Julia Holter), Graham Walsh (Holy Fuck) and longtime collaborator Patrick Ford - ‘Wallop’ was eventually stitched together to reflect the colourful, body-moving tapestry that its end result represents.
