They are an electronic trio comprised of Dave Clarkson (formerly of Triclops) on synths, rhythms, tapes and percussion, Alan Hempsall (formerly of Factory Act Crispy Ambulance) on vocals, treated guitar, samples, loops and Adrian Ball (light show and projections). The musical scope is varied, one minute pastoral dreams, the next crashing swathes of noise chased down with a dub twist. To date they have released three albums ‘Assault Two’ (2017), ‘All You Love Is Need’ (2020) and ‘Psychological Colouring Book’ (2021). Amongst their frequent live appearances they have opened for Wrangler, Wolfgang Flur and Eric Random.
