Billiam, the ever-prolific force behind “autism core,” continues to evolve as a songwriter with each release. On his latest album Animation Cel, Billiam (Melbourne) retains the quirky synths and otherworldly vibe often associated with the egg punk genre – and some fun use of samples, listen to Matinee for example, while pushing into catchier, crunchier lo-fi punk territory. The album is filled with some of his best work yet.
If you’re into unpredictable punk with just the right amount of chaos, Animation Cel is the bumpy ride you won’t want to miss — wheels intact and all.
Animation Cel is out now on Erste Theke Tontraeger and Legless Records.
