THE ESTRANGED are a new three-piece from Portland, Oregon. Members come from the HC/Crust scene, where they have a long history of playing in some of the genre's most influential bands. Kinda surprising, then, that on Static Thoughts The Estranged throw us a curve ball and wind up going off in an entirely new direction, exploring ominous, dark (musically and lyrically) post-punk à la Wipers meets Mission Of Burma meets Warsaw-era Joy Division. No Love, Don't They Know, Nervous Blood, Nothing to Say, Apparition, Exhibition, Static Thoughts, Image of More, Message, Valueless Properties
