Tremors, the sophomore album from Irish quartet Humanzi, has only dropped in the U.K., but that fact shouldn’t prevent their post-punk dance rock from storming through clubs Stateside. Single “Diet Pills and Magazines” has been given a phantasmagorical video treatment wherein televisions are smashed, diet pills are flashed, and magazine headlines and adverts are compiled into disorienting collages. The visual sensory overload complements the band’s throbbing new-wave impulses on the track, and it all feels extra psychedelic when singer Shaun Mulrooney spews, “This is the shit, so get used to it / This is the shit you’ve got to live with.”
