party starters A WILHELM SCREAM are
finally coming back to NZ, playing a one off show @ Whammy on Thursday June
2nd 2016!
The most exhilarating punk rock is meant to be played at the outer limits of
what is technically possible, right? It is according to A Wilhelm Scream.
If what you're looking for is music from an honest place, then you've found it
in A Wilhelm Scream,
the far from cliché Quintet, outta New Bedford, Massachusetts (The band takes
their name from the stock sound effect first used in the 1951 film Distant Drums and
popularized by its use by sound designer Ben Burtt in the beloved Star Wars
trilogy.)
Avoiding bandwagons and bucking trends for over a decade, with several releases
on Nitro Records, Paper + Plastick and No Idea, AWS (as they are known to their
worldwide fan base) are widely recognized for their highly energized and
exhausting live shows with a battery of riff-heavy rock that never serves
to disappoint. it has been said of the act that they are “one of the most creatively
engaging and thoroughly fun and exciting bands in punk.”
They’ve been promising a follow up to 2013’s full length album Party Crasherfor a while now so we’re hoping for a preview of some new stuff when they make their way back to NZ in June 2016.
