Portland’s Collate have never been a group to push the boundaries of their own genre exactly, but that doesn’t mean there’s not plenty of fun to be had anyways with their comparatively straightforward and simplistic mixture located somewhere inbetween the more funky end of the no wave spectrum and Gang Of Four-esqie dance-/post punk grooves. It’s a record that kinda sneaks up on you with much of its strongest material hidden away in the second half.
