PRESSING INFORMATION
+ LIMITED EDITION 12" VINYL
London-based noisy trio Girls In Synthesis are wonderfully described as looking "more like a terror cell than a rock group". The band and their collaborators have created all their own artwork, videos, photos as well as the records
themselves, truly embodying the original meaning of DIY. Non-musical projects have included a long sold out and collectable series of lyric and poetry books, a month long photography exhibition at Lomography in London and also run a regular postal mailing list for fans.
Lyrically they are dealing with working class experience of fragile mental health, social immobility, a sense of powerlessness, precarity, anxiety and the corrosive effects of a hostile society. Straight down the barrel vocal delivery from John Linger as he barks out "I’ve seen a glimpse of the future!"
With the punk tag not quite fitting, the group have acquired a broad range of influences; disco and dub can be found rooted in the rhythm section whilst bands such as Crass and Flipper have informed the atonal guitar dissonance.
Their new release "Konsumrausch", an exclusive standalone mini album for Hound Gawd!, explores various sonic territories and expands on the band’s previous releases by adding further experimentation.
Release Date: 17 June 2022
