Rory Attwell, aka. the dude from Test Icicles, is basically the messiah of all things guitar-led and distorted. He’s worked with the likes of Yuck, Male Bonding, Mazes, S.C.U.M, Palma Violets and produced my personal favourite British guitar led record of 2012 – Cokefloat! by the excellent Paws. Basically, he’s twiddled the knobs for just about every great UK lo-fi band of the twenty teens (ummm, and the Vaccines, gloss over that.)Anyway, he’s just lent his reverb soaked fingertips to the latest EP from Brighton four-piece Tyrannosaurus Dead. The record - set to be released on 12” vinyl via Odd Box on May 6th - includes the wonderful “Sadie” which sounds every bit as beautiful as has come to be expected from Mr Attwell.
