L.A. outfit Hooveriii dropped their “Guillotine” in June and now they’ve got a full-length ready that’s just as sharp. Their new self-titled album (with extremely striking art by Jesse Fillingham) is built with Neu! beats (“Bird On A Wire”) and “Rainbow In Curved Air” synth fractals (“Mercy”) and a lovely tangle of guitar chaos that finishes off “MUDD” as it finishes off the album. But really Hooveriii is about tension, release and confident command of the riff, whether that’s riff as blunt instrument or riff as cutting instrument or riff as torch, wedge or shaped demolition charge. “Destroya” and “Turn Blue” make a nice one-two punch near the album’s center, but every song on here is built for power and indestructibility: Hooveriii loves to make a little sound like a lot, so when they crack the song open at just the right moment, it’s nothing but clear light and transparent radiation. 300 copies of course including special splatter vinyl out Fri., Sept. 14, on Permanent, and Hooveriii will be doing their record release on Fri., Sept. 14, at the Echo with Frankie and the Witch Fingers and Patrick Nolan and Perfection. Get tickets here! (They’ll also head out on tour this fall.)
