Amyl and the Sniffers prove they can level a room with nobody in it. Recorded at Soundpark Studios in Melbourne in October 2021 for the celebrated “KEXP at Home” series, the Australian punk firebrands rip through a set built on the snarling energy that has turned them into a global phenomenon, with vocalist Amy Taylor at her magnetic, wonderfully chaotic best. The setlist leans on their then-recent album ‘Comfort to Me’, with “Guided By Angels,” “Hertz,” and “Security” delivered at ferocious intensity, Dec Martens’ gritty riffs locking in with the driving rhythm section of Bryce Wilson and Gus Romer. An interview with KEXP’s Troy Nelson rounds it out, offering a window into the band’s creative process and a pure, unapologetic dose of rock and roll.
