A fresh, visceral stew of conventional and experimental sounds – stonking riffs, thrashy noise, evocative songs and electronic soundscapes. Music delivered with a captivating swagger and greedy energy – utterly beguiling and packing a powerful punch! Their riveting debut recording was a Mercury Music Prize album of 2012.
Influenced by a wide range of music from Tim Berne, Chris Potter and Anthony Braxton to Queens of the Stone Age, Soundgarden, Slum Village, J Dilla and Flying Lotus as well as the vibrant Leeds scene they also name check contemporary bands such as Heernt, Trio VD, Animals as Leaders and Siriusmo. But their invigorating mix of rock riffs, angular drums, electronic loops and James powerful tone and use of circular breathing and multiphonics mark them out as a powerful new band in their own right and their use of electronics gives their music a muscular sonic edge and febrile funkiness that makes this music for the heart, head and feet!
