an avant-whatever collective exploring the nether regions between the groove and free improvisation; sub-aquatic observations of dub, jazz, afro-beat, krautrock and electronica.
The band's debut album,'Glass Darkly', is out now on Slowfoot Records.
"...the missing link between Krautrock and Lee Scratch Perry" [Rock a Rolla]
"...the spirit of Ege Bamyasi-era Can looms large" [The Wire]
"It sounds like electronic fusion era Miles Davis if he was arranging for the 22nd century" [experimusic.com]
"This one here sounds like an evil super-distillation of everything you ever liked about challenging music but you got it chained to the heater of your one bedroomed apartment in order to keep it hidden from the eyes of the world." 7.8/10 [Lodown]
"...deeply grooved and experimental stuff" [Clash]
"..a refreshingly categorization-resistant blast of unsettling sounds to stroke chins or bust a move to" [kruger magazine]
"This debut from the South London sextet is bathed in the rhythmic propulsion of Can, spiky post-punk Moog/guitar interplay, and the dissonance of This Heat" [Uncut]
