New York based 3-piece Violens are an enigma wrapped up in a puzzle. Just when you think you've got them all worked out they throw a smoke bomb in your eyes and disappear in another direction. If you caught them early in their development you'd have them marked down as Joy Division rehearsing in their dad's garage. If all you'd ever heard was 'Doomed' you'd have them marked down as Sarah Records devotees with better producers. If your only exposure was the quite awesome Violent Sensation Descends from their new EP you'd swear blind they were a bunch of acid casualties with a Beach Boys fixation. It's their restless search for pop perfection that has them tattooed on the hipster lips of the indie cognoscenti.The fidgety trio release their debut album Amoral today via the increasingly impressive Brooklyn label Friendly Fire Recordings and their own imprint Static Recital. An event that will be marked as the first day of the rest of the music industry's life.
