Synthetic ID: Bay Area Post Punk

Synthetic ID is a bay area band. They released an album, Apertures, in 2012 on 1-2-3-4 Go! Records. I never followed up with anything they did after that, but they’re now with Castle Face Records.  Seems like this album — my copy, a clear vinyl, pictured below — isn’t on Apple Music but the Bandcamp has previews. The music itself feels like a sustained pressurized blitz, an incredibly successful 8 songs clocking in at 17 minutes. Probably time to revisit.
