BIG KNIFE LITTLE KNIFE Streams Debut Single “Brickwork” via SoundCloud; ‘Anchor Rights’ out April 29, 2016

The Skinny: Rockers Big Knife Little Knife are set to release their debut full-length, Anchor Rights, on Friday, April 29, 2016 and now you can hear their thunderous lead single, “Brickwork,” just above.

Since late 2012, Big Knife Little Knife has been writing songs about anger and loss, and sometimes hope. Falling somewhere between Unwound, Shotmaker, and Hoover, the band has reshaped the ’90s hardcore sound they grew up on into something that refuses nostalgia and pushes forward.

On their debut LP, Anchor Rights, David Tkach (bass, vocals), Kevin Jagernauth (guitar, vocals), and Denise Williams (drums) have crafted nine songs that exemplify Big Knife Little Knife’s angular attack. Featuring ex-members of groups such as Weights & Measures, Giant Sons, Belleisle, The Lindbergh Line, and Dance Movie, the trio weaves frenetic guitar work, vociferous bass tone, and calculated drumming into their jagged post-hardcore approach.
