One of the many standout acts on the roster of the always reliable LA-based label, Felte, is Sextile, a rising post punk duo also based in Los Angeles.
Comprised of Brady Keehn and Melissa Scaduto, Sextile got together in 2015 and released Albeit Living, their incredible debut full length last year, followed by the single Current Affair early in 2018.
Their upcoming endeavor is simply titled 3, and it's a five-track EP, introduced by Paradox, a fantastic three-minute piece that presents the band's more minimal new approach, and a more new wave-inclined sound that lingers between the dynamism of Wire or Gang Of Four, and the eccentricity of DAF and Cabaret Voltaire.
The vigorous accompanying video for Paradox depicts a very charming and beautiful viewpoint of Los Angeles. It was shot and directed by John Stavas, and co-edited and directed by the band themselves.
In their brief existence as a band Sextile have supported live a great number of notable acts like A Place To Bury Strangers, Ty Segall, The Oh Sees, The Soft Moon, Ought, ADULT., Chameleons, The Modern English, and more. Catch them live at the dates listed below.
