Review by: Luke Younger
I guess these chaps are from New York as they’re on Les Savy Fav’s label. I could have researched that, but to be honest, I just don’t care! I also get the feeling that the Apes don’t care either! Well they probably do to an extent, but they probably don’t care what you think about their distorted bass and Moog driven, gutter-punk. Lucky for them, I am quite into it. They like to name songs after themselves like ‘Ape Town’, and the singer seems to enjoy howling a lot. He might hate howling, but I doubt it. Admittedly, the whole record gets a bit testing after about half an hours worth of listening, but I seem to enjoy it whenever i decide to stick it on. A good strong 3 out of 5 and a slap on the back from me!
