The band bring discordant guitars, atmospheric swells and colossal heaviness
For as I long as I live and breathe, and my ears continue to function, I will always hold a torch that burns brightly for musicians who refuse to allow the concept of genre to allow them to rein in their art. Dystopian Future Movies are a prime example of the riches that await: discordant guitars, atmospheric swells and colossal heaviness coalesce to form a singular sound that takes in elements of doom metal, noise rock and folk, which has been acclaimed from the likes of The Quietus through to Kerrang!
The outfit bring their tour to Newcastle’s Star & Shadow Cinema on Saturday 22nd October to support their upcoming third LP, War Of The Ether, which is a marvellous continuation of their signature sound, with lead single The Veneer brilliantly setting the tone with tightly controlled dynamic shifts and soaring vocals from Caroline Cawley.
Support comes in the form of Bad Amputee, the North East’s premier source of slow-core delight, who channel the spirit of that genre’s experimental thrills whilst still bringing something fresh to the table. Alongside them is Heat Death Of The Sun, a murky trudge through the world of electronic music, from minimal ambience through to hefty techno wobblers. All in all, a staggeringly diverse and enthralling line-up!
