Lets Bitter Cinema

Lets Bitter Cinema is Chris Hutchinson’s one man band from Sheffield and according to his myspace he is the future. Apparently the future is one loud ball of raw, stripped down synth-punk. He screams his angry lyrics like he’s trying to rile up a marching crowd of protesters, so it makes sense that he occasionally uses a bullhorn.

You can order his first single Take This Act Down / Oh Vienna from On The Fringe or listen to it on his myspace. “Oh Vienna” especially is a scary, snarling beast and sounds like “I Wanna Be Your Dog’s” modern sister. “Don’t Leave The Kids Alone” makes me wish I had this song when I was a teenager to fuel my hormone-driven righteous indignation. Lyrics like “They’re scared of no one even Jesus, son / They’re scared of no one even Satan, son” would have fit my state of mind perfectly then. Anyway, we can rest easy, because I have heard the future and it sounds good, my friends. Loud, but so good.
