It doesn’t all make sense, but you sense that’s the point.

This is far from your dime-a-dozen post-punk EP, sharing far more in spirit with the eclectic origins of the genre than their often resolutely riff-centric peer group.

Do Nothing have made great leaps and bounds with the Glueland EP: they’ve taken their sound and really pushed it to something unique.

They remain committed to their sometimes sleazy, acerbic musical identity but flirt with new angles both lyrically and sonically; a reclined and assured follow-up that oozes their lovable dark traits and shows no threat of getting caught up in the pack.

Yet another up-and-coming British punk band that’s impressing the hell out of me right off the bat! They just don't stop!
I’ll keep this review short since this is such a short project, running at a meager five tracks and seventeen minutes. Embracing a dance-punk sound, circa the likes Franz Ferdinand Parquet Courts, Do Nothing have come through with a more melodic yet just as chockablock with groovy magnetism follow-up to 2020’s Zero Dollar Bill EP.

I have no idea who this band is but I love them now. Sometimes post-punk can sound quite lifeless to me, but it's hard not to love it when it's this high-energy and fun.

6.7/10
Very soft version of punk if anything, "Glueland" is a pleasant listen without any outstandingly low points, but also with only a few of those higher ones. Cool EP with nice bass lines and decent production, but I don't see myself coming back to it as a whole project, I'm only saving the last track, "Great While Way" - certainly the biggest highlight of this EP.

While most people seem to be overwhelmed by the amount of post punk releases we have been getting over the past few months, for the most part I've been a huge fan of a lot of what I've heard from the genre. Albums from the likes of Idles, Shame and black country new road have been some of my favourites from the past year and a bit, and in general my view on the genre is quite positive.

First listen and yup, this slaps as hard as their last EP. Really look forward to seeing how these guys mature on a full length release. UK post punk is getting a bit dime a dozen, but this certainly stands out.
