Living up to low expectations (released September 2nd 2022) is the follow-up to Vex's award winning debut album (Best debut at Synthsläggan 2021). Ten songs of thrilling dance punk bonanza!
Relish the eclectic energy from the likes of Devo, Pete Shelley, B52s or any early 1980s weirdo you prefer. With a playful attitude, racing across genres with irresistible hooks and choruses, it's all just really entertaining.

lyrics
Exercising and doin’ my thing
Working out and practicing
Always being under review
Demanded to be fresh and new
Feel the urge to be the best that I can be
Everything is a test
Never content and satisfied
Feeling good, thinking it’s alright
It’s OK to be not OK but this time, this time
I will be going all the way this time, this time
I’m working hard
Like a training montage
I’m an astronaut
Aiming for the stars
I’ve got an itch that I wanna scratch
I can’t reach it, it’s on my back
Gotta stretch and extend my range
I gotta grow and I gotta change
Make the effort, no time for sleep
To toxic positivity
It’s a challenge, now play the game
Start the fire, ignite the flame
Sturm Café sending us some good music once again, made with love just like the rest of the catalogue. Hymne für die Ewigkeit stands out the most to me with it's memorable, nostalgic and awesome sequence and the way it flows with the lead synths. it's simply amazing. lovely album! tobischmobi
Magnetic, minimalist post-punk with wormy synthesizers and cracking drum machines gives the genre some much needed rattle and shake. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 7, 2023
On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
