Ever get that thing when you hear about a tour coming through town and you nearly fall over? This is one of those: And So I Watch You From Afar, Delta Sleep and Slow Crush, playing in the palatial (at least by the standards of where math rock bands get to play) environs of Electric Brixton. If you’ve been following along you probably know these bands by now, but let’s recap just in case:And So I Watch You From Afar were born from freezing cold winters on the northernmost tip of Ireland. They play raw, charging, experimental music that is hard to define. Sometimes angular and noisy, sometimes pulsing, euphoric, overwhelming. The joy, the power, the escapism found in their live shows is fabled. In 2006 they jumped in the van and didn’t stop. Across Europe, USA, Russia, Asia, Central America, and Australia, touring relentlessly, they’ve slowly built a cult following around the world. Their albums are uncompromising and exploratory. The true spirit of independence, the definition of DIY, of realness and resolve.
Delta Sleep are true heroes of the underground; their expansive, future-facing re-imagining of math pop has beguiled audiences from Japan to Dallas and, well, just about everywhere else. At once both intimate and glacial, their most recent record, 'Spring Island' is a stratospheric return — a cathartic journey birthed in sonic excellence that is one of their most exciting releases to date.
Belgium’s Slow Crush trade in towering slabs of ethereal noise that tread the high mountain passes between shoegaze, post-rock and post-metal. Having released two critically acclaimed albums in “Aurora” (2018) and “Hush” (2021) they have toured all over the world through 2022 and 2023, and we’re epecting a new record in 2024. This show is a Sunday just before Christmas, so we’re gonna open doors at 6:00pm. This means you can do some Christmas shopping or maybe just drink all day and then have the inevitable festival fatigue literally obliterated by three of the best bands you’ll see all year. Sounds alright, doesn’t it? You know what to do…
