Control

Searching for a post-something genre tag to slap on Control’s crisp guitar parts, frenetic bass lines, and polyrhythmic beats can generate a lot of confusion. Better to just enjoy one of the most dynamic bands in Madison as it careens around everything from punk rock to frantic jams. With two new EPs already out—Grabhorn, C., which features the stomper “A Slippery Slope,” and Schulte, A, kicked off by the knotty headbanger “Feast And The Seven Days Following”—and the final to follow shortly, each with its own custom designed 12-by-12-inch print, Control will have plenty of new material to rip through. The EPs are being released digitally, as limited-edition tapes, and together on vinyl with all three prints, meaning Control is giving all of us collector geeks something to get excited about.
