Who: Ahmed & The Romans
Punk
“Bands out of post-industrial cities shouldn’t sound like this, like the sun-kissed garage-psych of California via Australia, but that’s exactly what Manchester’s Ahmed And The Romans do. Guitars spark out with reverberating shots over rolling beats as the compressed vocals take you off to a land inhabited by the likes of Allah-Las and King Gizzard, albeit with a sly eye on a touch of post-punk. The psych scene continues to surge and, working with Manchester label Sour Grapes, Ahmed And The Romans have it in them to make it a home win” - Louder Than War
