Exciting young electro punk five-piece Don’t Wait Animate are breaking out of East London with a pioneering mix of new wave guitars underpinned by a dark, weighty mix of dub, bassline and crushing dubstep.
Their debut single “6174” is the perfect snapshot for these dire times. Laced with satire, the lyrics tear into the “current economic climate” while describing one man’s personal financial nightmare. The Dancehall-esque beats, jerky guitars and strong synths giving the urge to hop around quicker than a City Boy trader who’s just spilt his Frappuccino all over his keyboard. A real credit crunch anthem.
In little under a year Don’t Wait Animate have quickly made a name for themselves among London’s underground hotspots. Their rapturous live performances showcasing a mix of new wave guitars underpinned by a dark, weighty mix of dub, bassline and crushing dubstep have left venues around Camden, Dalston & Shoreditch shaking to their very foundations.
B-side and live favourite ‘Atlas Moans’ is a cry of angst for the “lost” generation dealing with the pressures of the world, delving into the reality of adversity and social expectations; soft, gentle and emotive and building to a frenzied climax.
Dazed & Confused, Rough Trade and industry tastemakers CMU Daily have all heaped lavish praise on the band whilst trademark bass wobble remixes of The XX, Robot Disaster & Delphic have turned many heads in the blogosphere
