Description
United Crushers is Poliças third full length release and their most remarkable yet, named after a graffiti tag seen throughout the bands hometown of Minneapolis.
Channy Leaneagh sings of a post-industrial urban landscape littered with broken promises, a land thats been rigged against us from the start. Despite all that theres an element of defiance, a refusal to surrender in her delivery of the lyrics.
Standout tracks include Wedding, written in reaction to the intertwined epidemics of police brutality and institutional racism, Lime Habits dustbowl electronic soul and Melting Blocks tightly wound funk
There is a darkness to United Crushers but it doesnt win. Dreams may be dashed and promises may be broken, the world may be full of disappointment and pain and violence but if youre in the midst of it all feeling lost and hopeless on the streets of Minneapolis theres a United Crushers tag that knows how you feel.
The band sold out a February show at Londons Village Underground in two days and will be returning to the UK for festivals in June and July, followed by an extended UK tour later in the year.
Rose coloured vinyl LP available exclusively to independent retailers.
