Obscure Sound — Two enthralling new tracks from Hauspoints — “Pillock Box” and “FFS” — showcase the powerful, creative art-rock sound of the Chorley, England-based group. Blending thumping grooves with both raw garage-rock power and avant-garde collages (especially evident in the sample-friendly “FFS”), both singles are replay-inducing standouts. Drawing from influences like The Stooges, “Pillock Box” struts a grooving bass steadiness throughout an array of dynamic guitar work, spanning from twangy intrigue to bursts of ardent distortion. Confident vocals move alongside, sounding like a cross of The Fall and Talking Heads in its suave combination of biting melodics and spoken-word style emanations.
