A dark and groovy punk and electronic tune from the ever so dastardly experimental garage outfit that is 9 o’clock Nasty, ‘Sleepy Policeman’ sees the group thoroughly refreshed and with an evolved sound. The track brings out a blend of hard rock riffs alongside a stream of dub and electronic arrangement packages to deliver a scintillatingly groovy and fun ride to enjoy. It’s a marked departure from the group’s traditional sound, showcasing their ability to deliver more than the usual high energy raw and gritty garage rock track. There’s a lot more polish to the production here, a much more focused and crisp layer to the arrangement. Still, the group manages to retain what makes them who they are, an unabashed coolness and suaveness that’s thoroughly unique and weird all at once.
You simply can’t take your attention off them as each track is as exciting as the last.
