The Lubber Fiend, Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Inverted Grim-Mill Recordings present:
Darsombra
https://darsombra.bandcamp.com
Darsombra is a cinematic conceptual rock band from Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Featuring composer Brian Daniloski on guitar, bass, and vocals, and filmmaker Ann Everton on synth, vocals, percussion, and projections, Darsombra is internationally known for walking the line between glam-prog-psych-stoner metal and site-specific installation performance art. Live, their carefully crafted songs and videos create a hallucinogenic synesthesia for the audience, as Everton and Daniloski build a temporary reality from sound, sight, and movement.
But beyond their notoriously psychedelic stage shows, they have a strikingly distinctive and unique sound, which runs the gamut from minimal pulsating drone soundscapes, to intricately layered album-length psych/metal opuses, to glam/prog Krautrock-esque tracks drenched with field recordings. Expect cosmic guitar solos and interweaving riffs, blissed-out synth sequences and bass lines, and emotive whacks of a gong or tolls of bells peppered throughout their work, in addition to vocal stylings that range from wordless choral harmonies to percussive chants, grunts, and word-salad lyrics. These sonic elements combine to conjure seamless, evocative music, communicating a sense of emotion, narrative, or ideas that are all entirely subjective for the listener—this is music for the imagination. Darsombra calls their sound "trans-apocalyptic galaxy rock": dynamic, kaleidoscopic music for people transitioning through endtimes and dreaming of space.
Joining them are very special guests...
Stinking Lizaveta
https://stinkinglizavetaofficial.bandcamp.com
Philadelphia based doom jazz power trio who formed in 1994 and have been completely unstoppable since then. From Steve Albini produced albums to famous fans within Fugazi, Eyehategod and The Sword, tours with Corrosion of Conformity and Clutch via various Desertfests and Roadburns of yesteryear, Stinking Lizaveta are a truly committed unit who will no doubt continue to explore their unique sounds for more decades to come... Last seen in the North East back in 2012 where they and Darsombra completely melted the Tyne bar into the Ouseburn sludge. Prepare for largely instrumental heft with a bit of screaming into guitar pickups if you're lucky!
And your local support...
Burnt House
Brand new trio of local legends... Claire Welford (Yakka Doon / The Last Path), Jason Etherington (The Unit Ama / The Long Lonesome Go) and Mike Smith (Bong / Zudz). Conjuring up a heavy blend of slow paced psychedelic folky wonders with sharp angles that jab you into nodding submission.
