Birds of Delay http://www.birdsofdelay.tk/ http://www.myspace.com/birdsofdelay Birds of Delay is the duo of Steven Warwick and Luke Younger. The Birds have blossomed into one of the best offerings from the UK noise scene, with a prolific outpouring of material, through a never-ending list of labels, including Chocolate Monk and American Tapes, and their continually evolving live performances. While their sound is underpinned by some almighty drones, the pair bring out an ever-changing array of instruments and electronic trickery to create some of the most intrciately rendered "noise" around.
Last seen in Cambridge in combination with Knifestorm in support of Magik Markers for crushing death and grief.
Emeralds Stoned strum droner vocal spells from Ohio. On that TV game show "Press Your Luck" some contestant tape recorded some episodes on his VCR at home, watched them in slow motion and figured out the pattern of the board so as to not hit a WHAMMY. He raked in tons of dough. Smart guy. (Fag Tapes)
Cleveland's answer to LaMonte Young without all the ego and bad old-man "I created everything" vibes. The best drone "band" working in the states right now â??- Skaters are still in Europe right? Dreamy and raw at the same time. Very mellow. Very spacious. Very good. Midwest again." (Brokenresearch)
"These midwest druggies really know what they are doing...Guitar synths, and tape hallucinations that sound like they could maybe be an unedited ULTRA recording. Fans of the surreal sound of Nurse With Wound and company should check these boys out..." (Hanson)
