Fresh from dropping ‘Goes Black’ last month, NYC quartet Big Ups return with ‘Wool’, the next cut to whet appetites ahead of debut album, Eighteen Hours of Static, due for European release on 13th January 2014 through Tough Love Records. Dead Labour handle the US release.

'Wool' seethes with a slow burning intensity, building towards a bilious climax. The track is peppered with a youthful exuberance and reckless abandon while still holding true to a melodic song writing core, coming across how Fugazi would sound if MacKaye loosened up and kicked back with a beer from time to time.

The band, made up of Brendan Finn, Joe Galarraga, Amar Lal, and Carlos Salguero Jr., met whilst learning about specifications of Cat 5 cables in New York City. Shortly after, they formed a band. Since that glamorous meeting in 2010, Big Ups have refined their blend of punk, post-punk, metal, and indie rock into a salty mash that gets stuck to the roof of your mouth. At their brightest, they have been likened to The Descendents, but at their sludgiest, they call to mind bands like Pissed Jeans and The Jesus Lizard.
