UK based music duo Evil Nine have released a new album called They Live. Actually they released it a little while ago but I’ve only just heard of it and it sounds so much fun that I thought I’d give it a mention.

As you might have guessed from the title, They Live (released on Marine Parade) is inspired by the classic John Carpenter movie. According to the Evil Nine website:

“Don’t be surprised if They Live! does for zombies what Daft Punk did for robots. With stomping electro drums, ’80s Italian horror-movie synths, dirty punk basslines, and a wanton disregard for genre rules, the infamously subversive dance/electronic duo create an unstoppable soundtrack for the new zombie revolution, down to the gory horror-show cover imagery courtesy artist Dan Mumford, infamous for his sicko album art for Gallows and other punk/metal classics.”

Tracks include Feed on You (”somewhere between a zombie death march and miami vice incidental music”), How Do We Stop The Normals? (”techno wiggles and jan hammer moments twinned with a super triumphant breakdown”) and Twist the Knife with Emily Breeze (”it’s all lipstick, neon lights, fast cars and us pretending we’re in a rock band on this one”).
