About this item
Hardware demon Ste Spandex returns with one of his infamous Cerberus Future Technologies units. This time it's Levenshume crew, Licking Mirrors on the attack - made up of Crispy Duck & Govinda Chugdream on vocals and guest featuring Luke O'Reilly and Anturio. Licking Mirrors make psychotropic industrial disco-punk, with a live, one-take ethos and more lysergic elements than your standard patch of Amazon rainforest. Like if !!! and LCD Soundsystem had an ayahuasca ceremony with Ron Hardy orchestrating events behind a holographic field. Spandex's dazzling array of hardware is the centre piece, with his trademark chunky drums ricocheting all over the shop as heavily manipulated vocals ride through the murk like a crazed, space-age version of Mark E Smith. Synths buzz within an inch of their tortured life as all these aural fractals are somehow squeezed onto a C90 tape, further enhancing the out-there nature of the beast as frequencies are lost in harmonic resonance, analogue distortion and overloaded headroom. It's a thoroughly invigorating trip folks, just make sure you strap in before you take off. Highly recommended.
As usual, for soundclicks visit Cereberus Future Technologies bandcamp.
