SPECTRES, ZED PENGUIN, Wozniak
Spectres are taking a stand against what they consider to be mediocrity in music which is hugely refreshing. This uncompromising approach is reflected in their exceptional debut album Dying, released on Nat Cramp’s ever-excellent Sonic Cathedral label. Whereas most bands influenced by the 90s shoegaze scene tend to focus on the dreamy, atmospheric side of the oeuvre, Spectres have taken MBV’s infamous ‘holocaust’ section as their jumping-off point, using this distorted racket as the abrasive soundbed for Hatt’s deeply dark and twisted tales of modern life (and death). “Not for sissies,” according to 6 Music’s Lauren Laverne, a statement supported by anyone who has seen the band live, where they play with a ferocious intensity and at a volume level designed to send the lily-livered scurrying for the nearest exit.
Joining them are one of the best bands in the country, ZED PENGUIN
