Following on from their second full length album, The Rest Is Distraction, UK’s experimental post-punk outfit GIRLS IN SYNTHESIS have just released the magnificent ‘Die Leere’ EP on Germany’s very own Hound Gawd Records. This mesmerizing release sees the band strip back some of the atonal, noisy elements of their sound and replace it with an intense sparseness, a glassy clarity and added melodic touch. The band’s trademark tribal drums and driving bass are still front and centre, alongside warped, deathrock-influenced modulated guitar figures, all adding up to a refreshing update on their truly innovative sound.
Formed in 2016, GIRLS IN SYNTHESIS are John Linger (bass / vocals), Jim Cubitt (guitar / keys) and Nicole Pinto (drums). The trio’s double a-sided debut single ‘The Mound’/’Disappear’ came out in the early part of 2017, and since then they have established themselves as the most forward thinking, viscerally challenging band around with unmissable live shows that continue to excite and astound in equal
measure.
Unlike any other group around on the contemporary music scene Girls In Synthesis are highly prolific, and following a string of sold out shows across Europe in February of 2023, the band have been tirelessly working on their greatly anticipated third full length album, set for release in the Spring of 2024.
Supporting the release will be a run of shows across the UK and Europe, bringing their captivating sonic assault back to their audience.
Be prepared for a big year as Girls In Synthesis set to explode out of the UK DIY underground onto the world stage.
