If this were a different time of year The Acid would be the making all those impending ‘Ones To Watch’ lists, but as we’re only in the middle of October, the hyperbole will have to be ever so slightly subdued.
The Berlin based trio emerged into internet based existence four months ago with their standout track “Animal”, which has now been given a smoky new video.
Broadly electronic based, it has impressively well worked moments of brief silence that keep you anxiously waiting for the next bout of falsetto coos, soft percussion slaps and droning synths with baited breath.
