FICTION
Sunday, 17 May 2009
Fiction are one of our new favourite bands, we like them so much we’re putting them on at this months Off Modern. Its all very intricately constructed around beating drums and slowly climaxing guitar lines, there are aspects of Josef K and Orange Juice to it but the whole thing is carried off with a Dada-esque awareness of the playful joy/absurdity of music that really brings it above the sum of its parts. Which is a compliment. Here are three mp3s for you to listen too.
