Flasher

Although undoubtedly, and proudly, a band that could only be native to Washington DC and its politically-engaged DIY independent culture, the songs of Flasher speak to an experience that is universal – an instantly recognisable state of being where torpor and hedonism share an equal status, one experienced at the sharp end of inter-generational equality. The band’s music is a thrilling and energised response to such feelings of malaise – a layering of guitars and atmospheres, which proves that the sound of kicking the hell out is still the best response.
