NOT A HEADLINER Vinyl & CDs

Review: The Rose Island got plenty of attention, and rightly so, for its first EP, and it is now back with another that is just as good. Not A Headliner is well regarded for Detroit-influenced sounds and that is the case again here. 'Desobediencia Como Virtud' opens up with warm, driving machine sounds that are peppered with hammering percussion then 'Barracuda' races ahead with more dubbed, economical but effective linear techno grooves. 'Cashflow' is more bouncy and buoyant and 'Pseudofan' then gets trippy with some wild sound designs and broken drum patterns that make for real carnage.
