Bonding over the films of Kenneth Anger, the guitar work of Lou Reed and William Reid, the writing of Jean Genet, and the shirtless figures of David Hockney paintings, San Francisco trio Flesh World slowly built songs filled with brooding post-punk darkness and outsider pop – all in between hanging out at drag bars and punk shows.

Just To Tear Me Down comes from new album The Wild Animals In My Life, and if there is any justice in the world (and the next), Ian Curtis will be jerking spasmodically to it on his iPod upstairs..

Have a listen.
