They still sound like a bin full of wasps, but now the bin has double-cream or a Viennetta at the bottom, nice! While many of the 16 songs on here barely make it past the 3-minute mark, each one is bursting with all the textures and colours you’d expect from the band.

Big day today, the new Dog Chocolate album, heavily trailed at our label showcase last week, has been officially announced!

After 7 strange years of relative silence, Dog Chocolate have now returned with ‘So Inspired, So Done In’. This fourth album is their most focused, cohesive + song-based yet.

Echoing the legendary Pylon or the later, disco-inspired releases from PIL, tracks like ‘Emergency’ and ‘Unreal’ blend the band’s established disjunctive style of gothic restlessness with brighter, poppy, and danceable tones.

So who’s playing our two-day showcase at Cafe OTO next week? We thought we’d look at all the artists performing, and the first is Es!

ES released an incredible EP titled ‘Fantasy’ in 2023 (on Upset The Rhythm).

What a head-spinning checklist? Dizzy sprawls of pertinacious drums, spun-out fx, crushed staggering guitars and freaked sax rapture. This landscape of unruly sound is then stalked through by Izzy & Jeremy’s spontaneous vocal projections, the effect is utterly pulse-quickening.

Here we go! EarthBall’s goliath slamdunk of an album is released today! ‘Outside Over There’ is a phantasmagoria of improvised psychosis, as heavy as a juggernaut, as divine as a tarot hand.
