Excerpt from DEAF fundraiser 21/08/2009 by Bren Talbot

The Fold 4 : Threadpulls (Excerpt) from The Fold on Vimeo.



About

Thread Pulls are an experimental two-piece with the drumbeat at their core. Thread Pulls became the first Irish band to be invited to play at the celebrated All Tomorrow's Parties festival. After releasing four EPs on 9-pt records as a three piece, they stripped down to the duo of Gavin Duffy and Peter Maybury, and spent the following two years developing their upbeat progressive sound which meshes trumpet, electronics and treated vocals with a no-wave inspired mix of repetitive bass and drums. Thread Pulls are now recording their début album.

Peter also makes electronic music as Hardsleeper and in Rainfear. Gavin plays occasionally with Karl Him and Electronic Sensoria Band.

Press

'The occasional use of trumpet brings to mind Throbbing Gristle's "Cornets" being covered by Sonic Youth.....This leaner, meaner and more muscular line up has left the music at its most powerful.' - Brainwashed

'It's our first taste of The Noise of the weekend... Thread Pulls tree-surgeon Sonic Youth and night-time dockyard menace is a harsh contrast to the lush, impending spring outside.' - Playlouder (review of performance at Vincent Gallo ATP)

'Og der var strøm på dublindrengene, da de med The Fall-agtigt postpunk og Tortoise-kraut henrykkede det nu både stående og henslængte publikum.' - Geiger (Hurra Festival review)

'An exquisitely loud percussion and screaming guitar explosion, the post punk stomp that they began with touches base with bands like Liars, a primal funk hidden under sheet metal.' - Brainwashed (Bardo Pond review)

'fans of music that is neither soft nor safe also may find something to treasure here' - Irish Times

'To use lazy journalistic shorthand, Thread Pulls are Big Black covering This Heat. Does it get any better than that?' - Wirewool blog 2

'built from feedback, dissonant chops and reedy vocals that put one in mind of Thurston Moore traversing a tar pit,' - The Wire

'their minimalist aesthetic really shines through' - Foxy Digitalis 

'ostinato pulse of snarling guitars and noises' - Stylus magazine

All Thread Pulls releases are available from www.9-pt.com, Road Records (Dublin) and Printed Matter (New York)
