SNAPPED ANKLES

Snapped Ankles return to the forest, but it’s not as they left it. Trees planted in neat rows. A well-ordered monoculture with access roads and heavy machinery. The smell of greenwashed money in the air. There’s no sign of the ancient woodland they emerged from on debut album, Come Play The Trees. And it’s far cry from the gentrified East London they found themselves hawking on Stunning Luxury. All is not well in the face of progress. Welcome to the Forest Of Your Problems.

Forest Of Your Problems runs the gamut of modern woodwose emotions. In this neat human approximation of the forest, it’s an increasingly knotted affair. Despite all of this, Snapped Ankles haven’t lost their innate ability to make you want to move your feet - their Teutonic forest rhythms are still shot through with post-punk lightning.

Snapped Ankles outsider status has always allowed them to hold a mirror up to society. Now the boundaries are not so clear. In the four years since Come Play The Trees was released, their cult has flourished. Previous album Stunning Luxury saw the band invited to play the BBC 6 Music Festival and a KEXP session on the back of a sold-out UK tour which culminated with two nights at Village Underground in London. As those who have witnessed the shamanic ritual of their live shows will attest, they are a truly unique, communal experience. Forest Of Your Problems will see the woodwose bring their ancient forest rhythms and high-wire, multi-media live act to ever bigger stages - including Camden’s iconic Roundhouse in October.

GLOIN

Gloin is a 4-piece noise rock group from Toronto, Canada. Gloin was formed in 2018 by 4 friends with a shared passion for engaging and visceral live performance. After playing consistently in the Toronto music scene, Gloin recorded and released their debut EP Soft Monster that paved the way for invitations to music festivals like SXSW and New Colossus, opening slots for international acts such as Orville Peck and Moon Duo and an 18 date tour across North America. Gloin puts precedence on delivering an unforgettable experience live, and continues to carve out that reputation in every city they play in. Described as a “wall-of-sound Maelstrom” (Exclaim! magazine), Gloin ensures that no 2 shows are the same by leaving portions of their sets open for improvisation and experimentation, as well as following their instincts that louder is certainly always better.
