Another score on the card for what is fast becoming one of the most vital hotbeds of new music in the UK, thats what. Queen Marys Revenge offer a curious collision of genres that fall somewhere between latter day At The Drive-In and a more discordant, cardigan-less Idlewild.

If sandpaper scratching were the musical equivalent of earshredding operatic sadism then 'Meta/Para' would be its universal soundtrack. Vocally reminiscent of Hundred Reasons' Colin Doran, Queen Marys Revenge serve up a more graceful palate of noise, fury and melodic charm - usually during the same song - which can only stretch one's imagination further than simply labelling them with the usual emo/post-rock template.

The other track on here, 'Hera Into Heifer', drags Zeus' envious missus kicking and screaming into the 21st century in a hail of visceral top string led feedback. Of the two songs, 'Hera...' possibly shades it thanks to its blissful energy, which makes Queen Marys Revenge all the more sweeter.
