Hello there traveller, we are Future Corpses (fre: cadavres futurs; ita: cadaveri del futuro
; dutch: corpses van de toekomst; welsh: abarau dyfodolon; these translations are probably wrong).
We are a three piece of drums, guitar and bass and are from Nottingham, Sheffield and North Wales respectively but met, study and live in London. We are HUGE fans of music and we are enthusiastic about a lot of it. We are friendly also.
Our sibling band (they share our bassist) is Green As A Primary and THEY ARE GOOD! Looksee here.
We like the promoters Silver Rocket (look in our Top 8) as they have great taste in music and are very friendly people. And they have released an SR100 compilation with us playing "...pocket calculator" and several BILLION other bands that are too bloody good, and some of which are in our influences. And it is like £8 at the minute, "HOLY ASSWHISKERS" I hear you say. Yes. Buy it from Silver Rocket by clicking on them in our Top 8 Friends.
In our old line-up we had a violinist and released a 7" out on State of Distress. The music is different to how we sound now but worthy of your time nonetheless; we will be handing them out for a pittance (or free) at shows or you can get one from here. Buy the other, much, much better records on there by brilliant bands.
Our music isn’t art, it is party music. However, we have yet to find the right party. We like art but not as much as kicking out the jams.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch for a show, we love playing our music to ANYONE, ANYWHERE.
Also, we have an AMAZING manager/pedal pusher Cesca, who rocks harder than any of us ever will. If you haven’t heard of her, you’ve clearly not been listening hard enough. She is also bringing sexy back.
We've never been able to quite pin down exactly how the The Hunter Gracchus are going to play on any given occasion, which is a wonderful thing. A shifting unit with Syed Kamran Ali, Fiona Marshall and Jon Marshall at the core, they have recently settled into a fairly stable unit of six, but it's hard to know how long that'll last. Still, while it does, it's producing all manner of magical and highly unexpected performances. The one captured here was recorded at the band's practice room cum gig space, Fagin's Hideout/The Furniture Makers and is a less blistering freakout than some of their recent output, preferring to quietly explore every nook of tonal space. It simmers rather than erupts and, the longer you become immersed in it, the less aware you become of the passage of time. It's a recording that feels like it should go on forever and, when it does come to a close, the silence is shocking. In a time when it's all too easy for a group of improvisers to just go full-tilt in some euphoric pursuit, the Hunter Gracchus provides us with a glowing alternative that draws us slowly in and drowns our senses. This is truly awesome.
Peeesseye I Woke Up and Drank a Bottle of Cheap Kojak CDR
Peeesseye made the scene at Dylan Nyoukis's Colour Out of Space festival last summer and hopped over to Manchester to play a show at the Town Hall Tavern, the recording of which forms the content of this incredible slab of dense droning harmonium, scraping, buzzing, subtly soloing guitar and pulse-free, scatter-drumming. We can't recommend this enough.
This beautiful super-heavyweight LP, which comes packaged in a sweet full-colour sleeve reunites the UK's premier free drummer Alex Neilson, who's played, amongst others, with Motor Ghost, Directing Hand, Trembling Bells, Tight Meat Duo, Josephine Foster, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Jandek, MV&EE, Richard Youngs, Baby Dee and Alastair Galbraith, with Nmperign member Greg Kelley, whose reinvention of the trumpet is as crucial now as Anthony Braxton's reinvention of the sax was 30 years ago. A screeching, soaring, scattergun array of noises come maniacally out of Greg's horn, unlike anything we've ever heard and, with the addition of random stabs of electronics, he successfully straddles no wave, concrete and free jazz in a way that makes those genres seem like trite pigeonholes.
