Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Sell out warning! More Black Midi than Hakuna Kulala, Avalanche Kaito have seemingly come from nowhere and out-flanked their electro/technoid counterparts. All roads lead to Crofters for the highest of high-energy, futurist noise-rock, essential for fans of Senyawa, Pink Sifu, Lightning Bolt, Nyege Nyege…"

SCHWET & Erratic Batting proudly present: Avalanche Kaito!
Emerging from an original dimension in sound, the polygenesis Avalanche Kaito redefine what it is to talk with the ancients whilst leaping forth into a futuristic chaos of noise on their debut album journey. A palpable experience with each sonic blast, each layer a revelation, this simultaneously taut but expansive universe, in which the oral traditions of the West African griot converge with Belgium post-punk, exists in its own space.
A mysterious matrix that echoes disparate (but strangely compatible) sonic strands: deep griot traditions, Fugazi, Can, 70s era Zappa, Black Midi, the full throttle rush of Nyege Nyege Tapes. Crucial FFO Senyawa!
