Detachments already count Optimo, Andrew Weatherall, Ivan Smagghe, Trevor Jackson and Shackleton among their fans; London-based troops now step up equipped to win YOU over.
Intense sounding, new post-punk/dark electronic types Detachments were discovered by This Is Not An Exit Records, home to dubbed-out disco, avant-rock and psychedelic bombs from They Came From The Stars (I Saw Them), Hatchback, Professor Genius, The Emperor Machine, Prins Thomas and more.
The hype:
"Layering sparse, tweaking acid house production over post-punk ESG percussive beats and chunky bass should make for a hands-in-the-air experience - and it does, but only in the sense that Detachments have taken you at gunpoint." (The Times)
"They echo the disenchanted sound of Joy Division and the sleaziness of Iggy Pop; fusing disembodied vocal effects, spacey synths and screeching guitar sounds with dubbed-out disco-punk basslines" (MIXMAG)
"Frazzled electro-skronkiness, Detachments sound like the urban decay made flesh, or at least steel...one's to watch." (Subba-Cultcha)
'Messages' produced by Trevor Jackson is available here exclusively for FREE DOWNLOAD.
Album to follow September 2009.
You have been warned. Don’t sleep.
