Review

Julian Smith aka October emerges from the shadows for his first release of the year. The choice of label is an unexpected one, but it makes sense, with Honey putting out Eps by left of centre artists like Octo Octa and Vin Sol in recent years. Certainly, Pay Day follows an unpredictable path. "Tuesday" is a low-slung, reverb-heavy workout, punctuated by snappy drums and spaced out effects - like Chicken Lips on steroids. On the title track, Smith changes tact to deliver an abrasive, visceral stomper, led by wild bleeps and noisy, crashing drums. "Urgency" sees him flirt with the kind of menacing ebm sound that prevailed on his Black Body Radiation album, while he closes out this remarkable EP with the swampy abstractions of "Rent".
