The new track by New York’s Big Ups is brilliant. ‘Capitalized’ marks the first new track since their debut ‘Eighteen Hours Of Static’ and a split 7″ with Washer last year, and already promises big things. It’s a short two-minute burst of frantic energy, with a few stylistic surprises along the way.
The track has appeared alongside a teaser YouTube video that might just hint at a new album.
UPDATE [16:37 GMT]: Big Ups have just announced a EU/UK tour in Spring 2016.
