Discover Portuguese Post Punk outfit Them Flying Monkeys
Like some piece of heavy machinery shuddering to life, the track opens with a squeal of feedback followed by two metallic chugs before exploding into its full visceral form. ‘ Big Boy ’ is the name, and ‘big’ it certainly is. Synths wail like sirens amidst a nuclear meltdown. Guitars clash and ring like a buzzsaw fencing match. And atop all this glorious chaos, frontman Luís Judícibus snarls and yelps his nihilistic manifesto “ Man, I’m barely a child…how am I still alive? ”.
