When Brussels group Warm Exit toured Germany last year few of us, myself included, had anticipated the kind of surprise we'd gonna be in for, although their 2022 TV / Ultra Violence single already hinted at their sound morphing into more of a classic post punk direction. On stage though, it immediately became clear what a radical transformation this group had gone through with barely a speck to be found of their initial sound more in line the current generation of quirky garage-/synth-/eggpunk acts, now replaced by an intense and pitch-black abyss of atmospheric post punk, which is now also reflected on their full length debut, calling to mind a illustrous and diverse array of groups like Rank Xerox, Criminal Code, Diät, Girls In Synthesis, Sievehead or Negative Space.
