here after Ultimate Success Today, please bring them back that entire album is a punch in the gut in the best ways possible. creating something unique and obviously protomartyr with influence from the raw sounds of the clash, the fall, joy division.. sounds immense

Love this band. Saw them open for Cloud Nothings a few months ago and they blew me away. The bass, the drums, the guitars, the singer--all so vital and memorable in the way they approach their role in the group. Under Color of Official Right is a killer record. So happy they're from my state!

@@dbdmackd a year later, I’m still not sure I get the comparison? I love both The Fall and Protomartyr and think they’re equally unique and in the same league. Especially with all the new music protomartyr has released since this performance, they’ve proven to be the best “new” “post punk” band despite the huge influx of British post punk (a lot of which is very popular but sucks to my ears, bunch of copycats). To me, protomartyr produces music that, like the fall, stands on its own. Sure I hear Nick cave/bad seeds, joy division, maybe some of fall, but they are on the same level as those bands because they made something authentic and unique in a music field dominated by hacks, wannabes and copycats.

Why can't KEXP ever show the whole band? Or even all of an individual performer? It's not even easy to figure how many performers are in a band sometimes. They should fire the art school graduates and hire an amateur to film bands.

His style reminds me of Joy Division drummer Stephen Morris. In fact, the band as a whole is like a modern Joy Division of sorts. Don't get me wrong, Protomartyr are still very much their own thing, but to me they have deep JD roots. Drummer, Bassist, Guitar, and even Vocals and lyrics in a sense, to me anyway. Love Protomartyr, personally. Absolutely.

It's intentional. In case you haven't noticed, sometimes vocalists employ methods that aren't pitch-perfect. They do it for effect and emphasis, among other things. Or sometimes they just have an unconventional voice. Try listening to The Fall or The Jesus Lizard, and you might get a better idea of where this guy is coming from.
