Biography:Distophia are set to return this year with “Beat Dyslexia”, their debut full-length and the album the Birmingham-based noise-rock/lo-fi four-piece have always dreamed of making.Spurred on by the rise of the manufactured alternative and seeking to fight the encroaching apathy which genuinely left-field music currently experiences, the band returned to Staffordshire-based studio The Vicarage during the summer to commence work on their latest offering.Under the watchful eye of mentor Tom Livemore, the band threw their diverse collective influences into the mix with reckless abandon, creating an album which echoes bands as diverse as Sonic Youth, The Beach Boys, Yo La Tengo, My Bloody Valentine and beyond, while still retaining Distophia’s effortlessly raging, utterly distinctive sound.The famously-dense walls of guitars and feedback squalls of their live set (honed through gigs and tours with bands as diverse as Jetplane Landing, Modey Lemon, Seafood, Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster & Alec Empire amongst others) were effortlessly reproduced on tape, with sheets of white noise and scalding electronic touches reunited with timeless pop melodies and complex post-rock textures.2003’s “Soda Lake” was just a warm-up… “Beat Dyslexia” is Distophia. It’s the sheer, visceral thrill of inducing feedback with a battered old amplifier, it’s the warm pleasure of exchanging new, otherwise-unheard music with friends. It’s also the product of a generation of disenfranchised music lovers, those who want nothing more than to tell the world that truly distinctive and original music can still thrive and exist in today’s all-too-cold climate.“Beat Dyslexia” is released later this year through Necessary Records.www.distophia.com Videos: |
