Ötzi brings all of the vibe from the new wave punk scene that you miss. Echoes of Siouxsie Sioux and Joy Division, combine with Hook-esque basslines and the Robert Smith riffs that spill out of 15 stars. The band deftly avoids nostalgic cheekiness, and instead does something we've been waiting 30 years for, delivers urgent and modern new wave. Favorite track: Contagious. This album is a breath of fresh air while maintaining the vibe I love about other classic post-punk acts. Other favorite tracks are "Scorpio", "Storm", "Ballad of Oiwa", and "Contagious". Definitely going on my playlist for when I get ready for goth night, whenever we're allowed to go out again.
