XILCH feature members of DIAT, Rapid Dye and Perspex, and their first tape carries all the power and scope of what you'd expect from that lineage. Easily one of the most intense bands currently playing in Sydney, the nihilistic bent of people like No Trend and Stick Men With Ray Guns sits at the front, but there's a mind for structure and atmosphere that feels like a rare case of successful Wipers worship. There's not much like this out there, and when contextualised by the New Sydney Undergound(TM), XILCH firm as a powerfully unique prospect with their first set of recordings out now on Meatspin.
