Here’s a cool little track from a new five-piece from Utah called Polytype. It’s a case of ‘band name signals content’ – all glitchy and Alt-J like in its stuttering rhythms. There’s a full length due in the summer, entitled Basic//Complex – feel the aesthetic reverberating – and not much more to go on currently, but definitely worth penciling in to the ‘bands to watch out for’ jotter.
