Chicago based psychedelic art-punk quartet Razorhouse like to keep their listeners on edge with intense, brooding songs. Main man Mark Panick projects a sense of imminent danger on the band's new EP Codex Tres Lingua. if is not the whole world that is in jeopardy, then there is always an individual who should be looking over his shoulder to face something nasty.
Taking the fight-or-flight response as the lead theme for the songs things come to scary peak during Mortality vs. The Accountant, a mash-up of Peter Gabriel's Moribund the Burgermeister and Arthur Miller's classic play Death of a Salesman. Razorhouse are not about making things comfortable. Death is a reality and it might come sooner than expected.
