Hideous Sun Demon – “Can’t Live Like That”

Been a while since I’ve had a track from Aussies Hideous Sun Demon, but they’ve been constantly plugging away in their homeland, slinging sweat rock for the indie crowd. With their latest EP, Good Time out now, they hit on another basher of a single. “Can’t Live Like That” espouses some level of self-care, at least to the point of not letting one’s health completely slip from view. Vocalist Vincent Simpson rattles off his woes before finally blurting, “Don’t Want to end up like Mark E. Smith, dead at 60, dead at 50, dead at 40, dead at 30”. The song starts off tightly wound, rhythm section clicking and then devolves into a cacophonous splash of sound. This year has been slightly quieter on the Aussie front for me, but this one proves there’s still a lot of juice in the South Hemi motor. Check the frothing video above.
