Following massive UK acclaim and extensive overseas touring (including a triumphant US debut at CMJ in NYC), Nottingham’s Late Of The Pier unleashed their genre-busting debut album Fantasy Black Channel on the US. At once darkly chaotic and unabashedly pop, Late Of The Pier’s music is almost impossible to describe, pushing stylistic boundaries to the edge of no control. Produced by superstar DJ-producer Erol Alkan, Fantasy Black Channel is huge both in scope and ambition, an exuberant rush of glam, psychedelia, nu-wave, dance punk, metal and madcap sci-fi experimentation. Not every band can throw shards of Zappa, Queen, Eno-era Roxy Music, Prince, Gary Numan, DFA, Bloc Party and The Klaxons into a blender and come out with something defiantly unique and grandly anthemic. If you are madly in love with Cut Copy, Justice, and the like then you’ll find a lot to love with Fantasy Black Channel. Do check it out!
