Well we were looking forward to announcing a load of gigs in the coming months but as you’re no doubt aware the whole live entertainment situation is being rapidly shut down in the face of COVID-19. We’ll keep the gigs page updated with what’s scheduled and what’s cancelled but things are changing by the day so please bear with us.
In the meantime we’ve made all our releases free (or Name Your Price) to download on Bandcamp.
Good luck and stay safe!
First of all, we’re overwhelmed with the great response to Night Lands – thanks to all the blogs, podcasts etc. that have featured it (list below) and everyone who’s bought it of course. The album is already sold out in physical formats (possibly a few left in the US at Feeding Tube) but we are planning a small re-press later in the year. Meanwhile it is still available to stream and download on Bandcamp along with our entire back catalogue. In particular if you enjoyed the free-flowing, spontaneous music of Night Lands you might like our earlier collections of practice room jams, Thermionic Emissions vol. 1 & 2 which are pay-what-you-like downloads. On the other hand if you prefer something more definite, we offer the last remaining vinyl copies of Adam Stone & DSA Live In Belper: “40-plus minutes of electric satire and caustic future-punk aimed straight at the throbbing heads of an appreciative crowd of misfits.”
We have provided a new recording – a 16 minute piece entitled Lunar Mansions – to the forthcoming Dark, Outside broadcast The da-daRK OUTSIDE, which will transmit from Dada artist Kurt Schwitters‘s Merz Barn in Cumbria as part of the Aerial Festival on 28th-29th of March.
On the live front we are lining up two batches of gigs – some in May & June and then some in October / November – more details as they are announced (and we are open to offers) but suffice to say that we are finally going international!
Those Night Lands reviews: Fragmented Flâneur | [sic] Magazine | Fighting Boredom | Reverb Is For Lovers | Terrascope | The Sleeping Shaman | Echoes and Dust | New Music Social | Fuzzy Sun
Podcasts & Internet Radio: Nightfolk In The Afternoon | Unending Subtleties | Bob Osborne | Dandelion Radio | Turn Me On, Dead Man
Let us know if we’ve missed any!
Thanks for listening.
Our next gig (and probably our last of the year) will be in that London, at The Black Heart in Camden Town. Click the flyer for full info and tickets…
Unfortunately Giant Boys are no longer joining us at Aatma, but in their place are the mighty LOCEAN. Looking forward to it!
Thursday 10th of October we’ll be playing our first headline gig in Manchester for some time at AATMA. Details and tickets (only £5!). Please come!
This Friday we’re playing with Adam Stone at DubRek Studios in Derby, along with Berlin bands Jaguwar and Yeahrs.
[ UPDATE: unfortunately Yeahrs can’t make it so there will be time for a couple of extra Dead Sea Apes numbers as well as the set with Adam. ]

…will be Tor Festival, end of August at the Golden Lion, Todmorden – should be a cracking weekend. Until then we’ll be getting together some new stuff (and maybe some more old stuff as well), and sorting out more gigs for the autumn.
