Accolades for Gutter Queen
Hide the women and children, Connecticut's lunatics are back with their second album. Cable retains their old noisecore sound on this release, but returns with more anger, bitterness, hostility, and experimentation. Like the great Unsane and Today Is The Day, Cable churns out sick metallic noise/metal with frightening vocals and some of the best lyrics you'll read in a while, 'Dying never looked this good.' It's okay to be afraid.
Cable will always be the black sheep of their record company, because there aren't many labels or bands like them. Heavy, but not metal, hard, but no way hardcore, rock but for certainly not what you hear on the radio. The music is intricate, and emotional, but again in no way "emo", the emotion being emoted is that of intense anger. If you like your rock hard and heavy with screams about six dead on the delta, while drinkin' on I-95 and placing that music into a genre is unimportant to you, then look no further...Cable will tear into you.
