The Coathangers
[INDIE] Nosebleed Weekend, the fifth and latest release from Atlanta’s The Coathangers — out this time last year on Suicide Squeeze Records— finds the fem-trio sounding taut as can be. Never ones for subtlety (yes, the band name is a thinly veiled reference to abortion, and they’ve covered topics like “twat-punching” in the past), they’ve still managed to evolve into a well oiled unit that understands how holding back can lead to a bigger payoff down the line, both musically and lyrically. It’s all relative, though – meaning that a punk band such as this one still plows forward through most of Nosebleed like an IBS sufferer races to the john, dropping killer riffs and impressive harmonies (“Perfume,” “Hiya”) while still managing to expand on their newly minted, artsier side, (“Watch Your Back”), and reminding of their irreverant sense of humor (“Squeeki Tikki”). Punk and polish have long been strange bedfellows, and most bands trying to balance them end up sounding like Blink 182, but not these chicks – you’ll thank them for it when they come to rock the Tralf Music Hall on Wednesday, April 26, with local support from honey COMA.
