'saint dymphna' also served to highlight previously untapped talent from the uk underground with a then unknown tinchy stryder providing vocals for the avant-grime track 'princes'. a pioneering piece of work, it - coupled with their incendiary high-octane live performances - served to establish gang gang dance as one of the most exciting and innovative acts of their generation. after a personnel change (tim dewit departed shortly after the release of 'saint dymphna', allowing drummer jesse lee to join the band), gang gang dance returned to the studio in 2010 with long-term collaborator chris coady (producer of 'saint dymphna' and 'rawwar', as well as recent releases by yeah yeah yeahs, zola jesus, beach house and tv on the radio) and work began on the group's fifth album. 'eye contact' sees the new line-up subtly build upon the melodic aspects of saint dymphna. the album opens with a brief speech, 'i can hear everything. it's everything time,' then segues effortlessly into the audacious eleven-minute slow-burn 'glass jar'. it's an ambitious beginning yet it is a coherent statement of intent. elsewhere, 'eye contact' features a guest appearance from alexis taylor of hot chip, whose signature vocals take centre stage on the track 'romance layers'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50410128343371,"sku":"338582","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/2397f79e-91df-4c90-9230-799d72649627_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726638482"},{"product_id":"kazuashita","title":"Kazuashita","description":"\u003cp\u003eGang Gang Dance – one of the most enduring and creatively vibrant musical acts of 21st Century New York – return with brand new album, \u003ci\u003eKazuashita\u003c\/i\u003e.
