Mon 10th Central Control presents STRINGS OF CONSCIOUSNESS + Viarosa + Rothko
Doors 7.30 As the first signings to ex Bad Seed/Magazine and David Lynch collaborator Barry Adamson's Central Control art-house, Strings of Consciousness are made up of over a dozen members hailing from Marseille, France, via London, Paris and Chicago, coming on like a latter-day Talk Talk collaborating with Angelo Badalamenti Their debut album 'Our Moon Is Full' is released on September 10th; a record of emotionally charged, experimental and deeply hypnotic pieces. Using their manifesto of uniting acoustic instrumentation and human sensibility with digital technology, the group were able to draft in many talented musicians from across the globe via the Internet, including guest vocalists Jim Thirlwell (Foetus), Eugene Robinson (Oxbow), Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys) and more. The result: a cohesive, warm, lush, harmonious collection of pieces, feeling as if they live and breathe-in the same air. Members of Strings Of Consciousness come from, and have worked with, such luminaries as The Macé Ensemble, Bob Mould, the Sea and Cake, Soft Machine, Frank Black, Robert Wyatt, David Thomas’ 2 Pale Boys/Pere Ubu, Spaceheads and Deviationists, in addition to having run two of France’s premier independent labels, Pandemonium (Unsane, Cerberus Shoal and more) and BiP_HOp (Erik Friedlander, Rothko, Scanner and more). The group have also been given the honour of being the only band to feature a new composition on the acclaimed My Brightest Diamond remix album "Tear It Down", which was released worldwide on Sufjan Stevens’ Asthmatic Kitty label in early 2007 to mass critical acclaim.
In support are Viarosa and Rothko. More on them soon, but we're very pleased to welcome both back. |
