On every level, Special Interest is uncompromising: in their adventurous sound, their high-energy live performances, and their convictions. Dance music and punk culture have flirted in the warehouse before, but Special Interest's desire to dismantle genre is informed by a larger abolitionist worldview that resists constraint, category, and conformity. The new tracks on their third album; 'Endure', recall the art rock of Sparks and The B-52s as much as politically-minded punk, and on 'Midnight Legend', the group is more overtly pop than ever before - making something fun during a time of frequent sadness became a central priority. But that doesn't mean anything is simple or surface-level, with a darkness often treading beneath the smooth production.
