Artist: War Nurse “Hounds”
Album/EP:Distress Calling
Off of their forthcoming debut EP, Distress Calling, which is due out on November 11, “Hounds” is the first offering from a mysterious new Canadian industrial post-punk outfit called War Nurse. Self-described as being of “no fixed address and of no material world,” these guys are ferocious; like Refused for the 21st century. Hell, they may even be the soundtrack to the beginning of the end of the world as we know it. Ready?
