Single Review: Who Killed Nancy Johnson? – Flat Earth Theory EP

Post punk rockers Who Killed Nancy Johnson? have released their new EP, Flat Earth Theory, today, the 16th February 2018, and the EP is now available worldwide on all download and streaming sites. The Flat Earth Theory EP follows on from last years Cops And Robbers EP, that marked their return from a lengthy hiatus with a new vocalist, and for me it’s a release that indicates that Who Killed Nancy Johnson? are a band whose time is coming, as for me the Flat Earth Theory EP marks their finest release to date.

 

Strip kicks off the Flat Earth Theory EP with an energetic guitar hook that encompasses a driving punk dynamic, but it’s also a track that also possesses a raw and ragged garage feel, this is followed up with the dark post punk of Alien that brings another element into play. Mouth And Trousers carries on with the post punk feel, with a track that practically spits venom at it’s target, until finally you get the EP’s lead single, Dark Horse, that for me is the EP’s finest moment, and I would say my favourite song by Who Killed Nancy Johnson? to date, that carries twisted spiky riffs that compliments the band’s dark punk energy

 

The Flat Earth Theory EP feels more like a true representation of what Who Killed Nancy Johnson? are about than it’s predecessor, the EP has a distinctly live feel to it that gives it a more immediate impact and draws you in and makes the Flat Earth Theory seem like a very appealing prospect, but like all good conspiracy theories you should never believe what you read and I’d recommend you investigate Flat Earth Theory and draw your own conclusions, the truth is out there.
