Alpha Omega, Australia

News: On September 28th, Alpha Omega released their 3rd album Dark Tales of the Shroom on the German Clostridium label (LP only as is custom for the label). Looking at the Bandcamp page, they have a date of January 2017, so this may be the first physical release of the album.

Overview: Though from Australia, Alpha Omega sounds so very English. Hawkwind is obviously in the middle of the conversation with its driving guitars and bleeping synthesizers. The songwriting has that odd lost warehouse sound of the Soho underground, especially given the sparse post punk vocals. Perhaps early Omnia Opera or Strobe could be a guidepost, or something really obscure like Rancid Poultry.
