Improved Means To Deteriorated Ends - Reissue [Burgundy Vinyl]

This is a repress of Brooklyn-based Washer's 2023 LP "Improved Means To Deteriorated Ends". It currently has 850,000 streams on Spotify. Like all Washer releases, this album's songs pound and contort. Structures are upended for massive hooks and sharp left turns. Just as the band settle into a groove, they twist and convulse into the next, delivered with wonky riffs and off-kilter fills. Washer don’t depend on abundant layers of sound and all-too-intricate textures, it’s the immediacy of what they do that feels special. The songs are pointed and aggressive, shaking and shouting, but rooted in constant hooks, nagging earworms best experienced in the company of pals.
