American alt-rockers Die Spitz have been a regular on our ‘Discover’ New Music Playlist in recent months as they released an increasingly impressive string of raucous punk ragers.
Now the Austin, Texas four-piece are ready to unleash their debut album, ‘Something to Consume’ but the question is really – is the world ready for it? We ask because, spoiler alert, good grief is it good!
The quartet uniquely switch-up their songwriting, vocals and instruments and therefore it’s not much of a surprise that the eleven tracks on this record are reasonably eclectic. There is however an intense and chaotic overarching aesthetic that just reaches out and grabs you by the collar.

Opening track, ‘Pop Punk Anthem (Sorry for the Delay)’ explains that “…my visions clear…” before the guttural cry of “…you’re part of me…” and the rawness of the music really does make you feel that you are part of their vision.
Yes, there are political undertones but the songs here act more in defiance of the ever-surreal realities of life. This is music to escape in, to believe in and its visceral nature is truly captivating.
At a time when it has never been easier to release music, it has never been harder to actually be heard but on ‘Something to Consume’ Die Spitz are screaming so loud that it’s impossible not to hear them. This is a genuinely exciting album that signals the groups arrival as ones to watch.
This is a very bold statement from Die Spitz and everybody needs to sit up and listen.
