Good Morning!
Today we’re listening to “Gunk” by Overmono
Brothers Tom & Ed Russell perform as Overmono. Both saw modest success as solo artists before deciding to work together. “Gunk” is off their latest Cash Romantic EP.

… a tightly coiled charge of industrial energy that—like “So U Kno” or “Bby” before it—swathes a modulated vocal bearing the expensive perfume of Y2K 2-step in rugged electronic cladding, a two-note synth riff bludgeoning the listener into submission as the voice pursues a more cerebral seduction.
I just call it a great addition to my running playlist. And hopefully yours as well…
