Music Tuesday #264: I'm stuck and I can´t get out

My favorite t-shirt is one featuring the album Wrong by Nomeansno.  On the back are two lines from a song on that album: 

Be strong
Be wrong 

It takes guts to do the "wrong" thing, like what Zeal & Ardor does: creating non-conformist music.  In a sense it is similar to what Igorrr does, but Zeal & Ardor stay closer to the tropes we know.  So it sounds familiar and sometimes simple as pop music.  But far from being pop or rock music, there is an edge and a message in their music that puts it squarely in its own category.  The second drop from the upcoming album this summer is a song that has it all: heavy sound, a great build up that never really satisfies you with a break, adding a swelling electronic sound which reminds me of the hard trance Bonzai Records put out in the 90s.

This is music to turn your amp up to 11.
