Death Of Lovers - "Buried Under A World Of Roses"

A new project comprised of members of Whirr & Nothing, Death Of Lovers have released a very solid debut outing in their EP "Buried Under A World Of Roses."  The echoing vocals & chiming guitars of "Shaken" are reminiscent of Asylum Party or "Faith"-era Cure, while the title track bears more than a passing resemblance to the recent spate of Cold Cave singles.  The driving opener "Cold Heaven" is the most aggressive track here, letting you know that the band members haven't forgotten the word "punk" is the key part of "post-punk."  4 songs in under 19 minutes leave me wanting to hear more from this band, and I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for the full-length debut from Death Of Lovers.
