Teenager Londoners King Nun have unshackled their ferocious debut single "Tulip" - it's wild and abrasive and totally addictive.
Through its brief 138-second lifespan "Tulip" whips through early-'00s indie, feral punk, and ramshackle grunge - the four 18-year-old members make one hell of a racket. It's loud and maniacal, with stuttering drums that splutter into action before unceremoniously crumpling into a silent heap... this is fascinatingly unpredictable.
"Tulip" is released on limited edition 7" vinyl on 18 November via Dirty Hit.
