Physicalist - Physicalist

Dave P of Night Court fame -- the band, that is, has a new project called Physicalist, with a self-titled album out this Friday March 27 on Dirt Cult Records.

In the label's own words:

Physicalist started as a one-person project of Dave P (Night Court) who plays most of the instruments on this recording, but he since recruited drummer Taylor (CELL, Unfun – who also plays drums on two songs on the release) and bassist Emilor (Night Court), so the band seems to be morphing into more than just a “one man band,” which is great news for all of us. The world is shit and we need more bands that make us want to jump into the pit and pogo with our friends.

Nervous Birds! Too
Debt Offensive, Snappy Little Numbers Quality Audio Recordings (2022)

Night Court may have a silly name, but the band feels sincere and (mostly) serious. Rooted in garage-punk, the sounds are familiar in form but each track on this 12-song record gives a different energy. Generally speaking, it’s melodic and positive punk with a lo-fi DIY vibe. There are elements of the old Plan-It-X sound but with a little more … Read more
