New Atlantis Records have announced that they’ll release Treffpunkt, the latest LP from polyrhythmic avant-punks U Sco. Consisting of members from several other notable, genre-bending Portland-bred projects, including the Jezebel Spirit, With Eyes Abstract and Duck. Little Brother, Duck!, U Sco has been an electrifying, formidable staple of Portland’s unparalleled punk scene since their formation in 2011.
Stream “Tuskflower” and “Iguana House” from U SCO here! Treffpunkt was recorded and mixed by Paurl Walsh at Roadhouse Studios in Portland in the winter of 2013. Sonically, it’s the best representation of the band so far, combining the dizzying velocity of their live performances with an aural spaciousness and lucidity that highlights the group’s breathtaking consideration for musical minutiae.
