Post-Punk
Formed in late 2016, London-based post-punk trio Girls In Synthesis' DIY attitude and caustic music has singled them out as one of the most intense and unique outfits in the UK. Taking their cues from legendary 1970's UK acts such as Wire, Crass and Public Image Limited, their relentless rhythmical elements owe as much to disco and dub reggae.
The band have built up a fevered fan base across the UK, with a reputation as an extraordinary live band; breaking down the musician/audience barrier by dragging equipment off the stage and playing large chunks of the shows from within the crowd. They soon became an in-demand support act for bands as disparate as Slaves, Bad Breeding, Wolf Alice, Damo Suzuki, Warmduscher and Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs. �
After taking both the UK and Europe by storm with their explosive live shows, planned dates to support the album are being scheduled for May '24. Although the band are currently tight-lipped about the forthcoming record, the resulting music can be expected to be as unique and as laser-focussed as the previous releases 'Now Here's An Echo From Your Future' (2020) and 'The Rest Is Distraction' (2022)

Die TICS aus Köln spielen Songs ihres brandneu auf Tomatenplatten erschienenen Albums "Flash Language". Post Punk? Aber Hallo! Die Jüngeren denken vielleicht an HORSEGIRL oder LiFEGUARD, die fortgeschritteneren fühlen sich vielleicht an Bands wie Q AND NOT U oder LES SAVY FAV erinnert. So stand es im Internet: "punchy rock and buttery-soft melodies are not enough for these guys. They'd rather add a pinch of funk or hectic post-punk or weird horns or sound really cheesy or... or... or"
