It is a rallying cry for the end of a reign. We like the idea of going ever faster and ever less far like an air of super regression. There are endless days when rage and anger rumble within us, squandering the efforts we must make to accept our conditions. Stop! Let the night end and let terror spread over the elites. Rupture is the first stone of our edifice where the heroes of the shadow and the old world can take refuge.
“Rupture” is the brand new single by the Bordeaux-based 3-piece band Order89, following last November 2023’s third studio album “Brûle.”
After techno-ish inceptions as a duet, a track, namely “Future,” was included in the ongoing series of sampler EPs on Curse‘s Ombra International label in 2019, the band follows in the footsteps of the blazing and visceral Francophone Wave /Post-punk heritage foreshadowed by trailblazer bands such as Indochine, Noir Desir, Marquis DeSade and most recently carried on by Vox Low and Frustration.
With a stripped-down use of electronica, mainly as vibrant bottom-end undertones, “Rupture” ricochets, rumbles and buzzes with brutally gripping, feverish rock’n’roll urgency and razor-wire tension, whilst heartfelt raw Jordi’s vocal delivery channels the whirlwind of driving spasmodic rhythms and crunchy guitars seething, through raucous blasts of belligerent grit to sharpen the charge.
A rally cry to end the reign of elites that bounces on urgent, rackety drums knocks the floor along with fidgety sonorous bass pulses engulfed by droning flurries of murky sizzling guitar stabs, delivered through urgent, surreal vocals and muted primal shrills, declaring to break up the future, before it is too late.
The above alternate dimensional visuals by Rémy Brugere use strobing lights, flashing neon lyrics, and lapsed time to blur time and space around a high-energy, edgy performance from the band.
