While I've been doing this Trip-hop thing, I've been listening to that band from Liverpool on heavy rotation lately.
You know them, right...The Beatowls.
Violette Records sez:
"Beatowls’ hall of mirrors reflects the DIY approach of Dean Blunt & Inga Copeland, warps The XX’s millenial longing onto Portishead’s sense of the sinister & distorts Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood’s trippy idealism with the skewed romanticism & foreboding of Angelo Badalamenti & David Lynch, Broadcast & Warp Records.
The band push boundaries with their creative exploration, reflecting the hustle & bustle of Liverpool’s urban-industrial mood & the introspective serenity of life."
Their 2023 Marma album is the best thing I've heard in a while. Here's a tune from that release. All I can recommend is check it out, buy it, support this great new band.
Enjoy,
