The London/Atlanta band called Algiers makes “churning, electrifying gospel-inflected rock, with singer Franklin James Fisher leading his congregation in songs that take on social injustice, racism, and government corruption” (Schaefer.) Fisher’s ferocious crooning over a whip-tight rhythm section of Ryan Mahan (bass, beat programming and synth constructions) and drummer Matt Tong (ex-Bloc Party), together with guitarist/saxophone player Lee Tesche’s sound-sleeves always leaves more to discover on every listen. The aural layering features synth constructions which drip with gospel-goth menace (“We Can’t Be Found,”) soulful testifying from the mountaintop (“Dispossessed,”) along with straight-up circle pit mosh anthems (“Void.”) The “outspoken” quartet Algiers play powerful and infectious songs from their latest, There Is No Year, in-studio.
