Daniel Eatock Picture Disc
April 25th, 2012
Once upon a time I showed my friend Andy (Lost Toys/Grubby Mitts/etc.) a book I just bought, ‘Imprint’ by Daniel Eatock. 4 years later, this is happening:
We’re collaborating with Andy Holden & Daniel Eatock for our next 7″ record, ‘You Could Be A Model’.
Each 7″ disc will be unique, with the artwork created from spinning circular paper on a turntable whilst holding a felt-tip pen down on the paper whilst it spins. This paper then gets sent to the manufacturers who sandwich it between the two transparent sides of the record (where all the grooves are). The length of the line corresponds to the amount of revolutions the paper makes (the pen will first touch the paper at the start of the song, and will be lifted off at the end).
We’re hoping for roughly 30 people with 30 turntables to turn up to the spin session at Stanley Picker Gallery in Kingston, anyone can drop in. We’ll be playing the single quite a few times so bring some tolerance. Every 10 times the song is played, we’ll be performing it live.
Contact details and info is available at: stanleypickergallery.org
Drowned In Sound reviews WrongPop vol 1
March 19th, 2012
Drowned in Sound have reviewed the WrongPop compilation for Deafness Research UK which our song ‘Diamond Swords’ features on:
“Ice, Sea, Dead People not only have a truly wonderful band name, they also provided ‘Diamond Swords,’ a frenetic beast of a song that burns itself out quicker than most bands can open a six-pack.”
Indeed.
Be sure to buy the compilation from the WrongPop Bandcamp page now, it’s only £5 and is only available for this month only.
New ISDP song on Wrong Pop Charity Album
February 2nd, 2012
Steve of Wrongpop has assembled this compilation of noisy/notoriously loud bands (Part Chimp, Shield Your Eyes, Kong, Pulled Apart By Horses, etc.) in aid of Deafness Research UK. #irony
‘Diamond Swords’ is a new track we’re particularly fond of—it being the first one we wrote with Jamie—which will feature on our second album. Details: it was recorded live on to tape and mixed live (which is both fun and terrifying) with Tim Cedar (he of Part Chimp-fame) at Dropout Studios, Camberwell. It’s unmastered. It will sound a bit different on the album. Probably.
Anyway, the compilation’s available to buy for £5 with all money going towards Deafness Research UK.
Interview with Tom Robinson, BBC 6Music
December 17th, 2011
Mr. Robinson welcomed us back into the humble bosom of the BBC last month for a few questions about our new single, ‘Ultra Silence’ and our upcoming releases, et cetera… If you’re not an insomniac then you might have missed it. Listen on:
