Aye Nako - Silver Haze (Don Giovanni Records) 2017

7

Silver Haze is the second full-length by New York City’s Aye Nako. It’s hard to leave politics and social awareness out of any conversation these days, and music is no exception. This collection of feral, confrontational and empowering anthems is very effective and strangely addictive. It bounces between Nirvana’s Bleach, Pixies’ Doolittle and pop-punk’s classic melodic catchiness. It’s noisy and minimalist, full of ear-wormy choruses. Repetitiveness is a not a problem on Silver Haze, the lyrical complexity tackles subjects that people seem to ignore or run away from. This is an album that will enrage and enthrall you in equal measure.
