I appreciate the occasional heads-up I get from artists we've previously worked with at Third Man as to their latest endeavors. It's a good reminder that people are still alive, that life goes on, that creativity is always an evolution, happening in different forms and timelines and disciplines. 

From the ashes of Blue Series alumni We Are Hex comes Cussy...solid dirty bass and wheezy keyboard interplay underpinned with mechanically wonderful drum cadence. Standouts for me are "Wombat in the Garden" all jacked Suicide-like attitude and snarl. "Purposely Faded" is a bastard offspring of some twisted Dead Weather experiment, all fuzz corruption and killer percussion. The beautifully-titled "Sandwich Shop Girls (Oh Golly)" spouts a sick, slimy, synthesized hook...just grooving for days. And album closer "Full Day of Cussing" brings it all to a splendid climax finish.
