Somewhere to the left of the dial you might come across CuVa Bimö, a Californian noise rock band featuring Sebastian Moeller (guitar, vocals), Pete Vadelnieks (guitar, vocals), Jake Bilich (bass) and Ricky Cunliffe (drums). With their full-length debut album CB Radio they present a confident calling card by fusing post-punk, new wave, grunge and gaze in an idiosyncratic way. The contradictions and searching of the personal but outspoken lyrics are reflected in the dynamic interplay between the heavy guitars and tight rhythm section, held together by distinctive, potent vocals. Haunting but admiring.

CB Radio, recorded by Kevin O’Connell, is out now digitally (self-released).
