CIVIC
One of the most exhilarating bands to emerge in recent years, CIVIC has reimagined the reckless intensity of proto-punk for an era of endless uncertainty. On their 2021 debut album Future Forecast, the Melbourne-based five-piece offered up a barrage of songs matching their frenetic sound with both self-aware outpouring and incisive observation of the world around them — a dynamic that’s earned massive critical acclaim as well as admiration from the likes of punk legend Henry Rollins. As further shown on their upcoming sophomore full-length Taken By Force — an album the band aptly sums up as “1984 meets Endless Summer” — CIVIC joyfully obliterates the line between furious catharsis and unbridled fun, introducing a vital new energy into today’s musical landscape.
