Freezehead Presents: Slow Knife, Godspeed You! Peter Andre, Aughra, The Duke of Zuke
Fr33zehead Records presents - ‘Saturday Night Special’
With music performances from:
Slow Knife
The horror drone band from Manchester & the soundtrack to your favourite B Movie. Imagine John Cooper Clarke and Tom Waits riding a bus to the 9th circle of hell, drinking bad wine and blasting the Marble Index on a shitty bluetooth speaker. Slow Knife are soon set to release their debut album 'Too Late For The Past' co-produced by Slow Knife and their mentor Lydia Lunch.
Godspeed You ! Peter Andre GY!PA (Godspeed You! Peter Andre)
takes you from the chanting drones of the inner coven to the industrial dance floor of satanic hell. Summoned out of Manchester, GY!PA are the collision of Kaskie (The Death of Money / SVNTREADER) & Emer (Water / Fat Out). When joined the gothic duo take you on an intense journey into the deep psychosis of their inner dominatrix.
Aughra
Recalling the visceral power of Shellac and the heady atmospherics of Cocteau Twins, Aughra’s strength lies in their brilliant use of contrasting moods and textures - one minute languorous, the next snarling and carnivorous. The end result – as shown on standout songs such as Dead Weight and Corpse White – is the sort of bewitching, mesmeric brew that wouldn’t sound out of place on a David Lynch soundtrack.

The Duke Of Zuke
The Duke of Zuke is the musical moniker of London-based composer, Clint Trofa. Tracks are built up using layered guitar loops, drones, minimal electronics and other sounds, to create ethereal, delicate, haunting soundscapes. Like the grimy cityscape evoked by the soundtrack.
