Algiers

This is an archive item from Supersonic 2020

 

In the true spirit of rock ‘n’ roll, this fast-paced four-piece from Atlanta douse their distorted anthems in a sound-concoction of raw-blues, gospel and industrial. With their fiery energy and signature political lyrics, you could easily imagine the four members of Algiers were in totally different bands playing at the same time. Mahan in some abrasive dance act; frontman Franklin James Fisher–in his bandana, straight out of a blue-rock act; pin-striped guitarist Lee Tescher goes for the serious-faced noise act; and delivering whip-tight rhythms, noughties indie-heads will remember drummer
Matt Tong from Bloc Party.
