We’re delighted to be working with MEMORIALS for the first time!
MEMORIALS draw inspiration from folk, dub, post punk, experimental tape music, 60s soul, garage rock and 70s spiritual jazz, twisting these influences into their own unmistakable sound.
The duo of Verity Susman and Matthew Simms (ex-Electrelane/WIRE) recently toured the USA opening for Stereolab and have been called ‘Stereolab’s evil twin’.
Their new limited edition 7” single Cut Glass Hammer is out on Fire Records on 3 December, with a new digital single, In The Weeds, released on the same day.
‘Kaleidoscopic art-pop and adventurous psych-rock with an immersive, experimental aura’ – KEXP
‘From baroque ’60s acid pop to Can-esque pounding krautrock to heavy psych… also very The Doors at times’ – Brooklyn Vegan
