"The Prids whip
the stars open with skinny ties and luxuriate in the stardusted fuzz
of guitar-based, danceable grooves. Their synths, spare drumming and
spectral vocals splay across gooseflesh-raising bass lines..."
- L.A. Weekly
"On Love Zero, the debut from The Prids, of Portland, Ore., via Lincoln, Neb., the music is dark and urgent in that '80s guitar- and synth-driven way, fitting into that space between Joy Division and New Order.”
- New York Post
The
Prids arrogantly defy categories. Their music is a distinct mix of potent
baselines, driving and emotive guitar work, groove inflicting rhythms
and percussion, and daftly layered synthesizers. The songs combine Kraut-rock
intelligence, synth-pop accessibility, and the immediacy of punk rock,
and then move on to gut-level experimentalism - razing all points in between.
Categories are attained and defied with every step.
The
truth is found in the music itself
