High Vis – Mind’s a Lie

High Vis - Guided Tour

London’s High Vis knows how to make hardcore punk – not a genre known for innovation or surprise – interesting. In Mind’s A Lie, aggressive punk is sung to the background of what sounds like an eastern indie dance song. The contrast works really well. Given my enthousiasm for this song I was a bit disappointed by the rest of the album, but this is a song blog, so who cares anyway. It is cool enough that there is a loud, aggressive song I am excited about.
