My Disco's Cancer is a raw and elemental debut which, true to their goal, has captured the essence of their live sound.
What is most apparent when listening to the record is the intellectual process behind it. This by no means implies pretence, in fact, exactly the opposite. Theirs is a sound that resonates a philosophy and not just a fad, a complete musical commitment driven by logic and structures that even an A-grade debater would find near impossible to undermine. Running at a length of 25 minutes, it is short like this review, only a hell of a lot sharper.
Cancer is out now and My Disco launch the album at the Public Office in West Melbourne with Macromantics, Fabulous Diamonds and Eddie Current Suppression Ring this Saturday. To be in the running to win one of two double passes email win@threethousand.com.au with the subject heading My Disco.
