Sex Swing is a noise rock band from London. They include members of EARTH, MUGSTAR, DETHSCALATOR, SNOW GHOSTS, THE KEEP, JAAW and more.
The locals call it Sop Ruak – eighty thousand square miles of mountains and mystery and unholy medicine. “It really is an endless seam of activity,” Sex Swing frontman Dan Chandler explains of Golden Triangle – both the title of their new album and the region between Myanmar, Thailand and Laos that inspired it. To know this contradictory corner of the world is to understand fully why the cult-beloved noise-rock artisans turned to it when writing their hotly-anticipated third full-length. The real-life Golden Triangle is a groundswell of both natural wonder and drug production, and who combines beauty and narcotic brutality better than Sex Swing?
Bryn Wyrd
Bryn Wyrd is a Bristol based duo with strong Midlands roots. The collaboration between Anthony Brown (Repo Man / Iceman Furniss Quintet / Swelt) on upright bass and Aron Ward (Harpoon / Olanza / Repo Man) on assorted electronics, drum machines and fx mangling wields an impressively diverse palate on 'L.A. Crab'.
Aron and Ant bring a gnarled, rugged and hyperactive sound to the table with traces of early Warp-style IDM (Idiotic Dance Music) colliding with free-jazz bass wigouts, dub/concrète/industrial textures smudged into the corners and plenty of proper swingin’, sweatin’ groove to gurn your face off too.
Harbouring a potentially unhealthy obsession and warped compassion for Genesis drummer, Phil Collins ‘1978 I Guess’ is Bryn Wyrd’s vitriolic attempt at releasing a ‘hit’.
An early version of this project featured material on the Selected Aphelion Works comp as Brown Ward, but L.A. Crab is the first full length exploration of this soundworld and I’m psyched to present this as the first release of 2024 for Aphelion Editions. Absolutely slamming gear with some equally great immersive, headphone moments too.
Entry requirements: 16+
