Rouge is a new punk band from Berlin, bursting out the gates with their self-titled EP that came out on German label Phantom a week ago. On these 6 tracks with with fierce female vocals in English, they prove that they’re here to stay. The sound successfully builds on melodic guitar playing and overdriven bass in taut compositions that also flirt with the synth-punk aesthetic but without falling into parody (which many of those groups do).
