As we previously announced, we’re putting our name to ace psychedelic glam group White Hills’ forthcoming European tour, and will be making their London stop – at Cargo on April 17 – something of a psych bonanza, adding Gum Takes Tooth and Baron to the bill. Get hold of tickets for the gig via Ticketweb and Wegottickets.
A duo comprising drummer Thomas Fuglesang and electronics-manipulator Jussi Brightmore, Gum Takes Tooth forge an impressive tumult through linking up their hyper-kinetic drums to home-made technology, resulting in the entirely unhinged and brilliant sounds you’ll hear on their debut album, 2011’s Silent Cenotaph – stream it in full below:
Baron comprise members of fellow prog exponents Diagonal and trade in spacious Talk Talk-esque sonics, though amply matching these to some cosmic synth – see above for a visual representation – culminating in something akin to "Morton Harkett fronting a Nightside King Crimson", as our review today says. Have a listen to their recent album Columns below:
