!!! (Chk Chk Chk) are a cutting edge NYC combo who you will avoid at your peril. The American aural ambassadors play at Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff, Cardiff on Wednesday, November 20, 7.30pm. Tickets are a bargain £17.75 and tickets are available via https://www.seetickets.com/event/-chk-chk-chk-/clwb-ifor-bach/1389146
The band delivers killer cuts awash with resplendent rhythms and indie injections. The Louden up Now album is one of the finest records of our era-and, their most recent 2019 album Wallop on Warp Records goes straight for the jugular of gyration!!! (Chk Chk Chk) fuse a sharp scything production with chaotic funky grooves – and, their sound deserves to be heard by the masses.
The band cross the continents of choreography to ensure that a feet to the beat feast ensues! Trademark touches will have appeal to fans of US brethren such as LCD Soundsystem and The Rapture-but, there is much more to admire. The charts should be awash with these sumptuous sonics that traverse from the influence of a Saturday Night Fever 70’s soundtrack through the technological time machine-and, in to the future!
The !!! DNA is stamped with punk abandon and dance autonomy-and, from this stance the listener will have every desire to seek out all eight of the !!! long players and also be in the Welsh capital for this special visit! The last gig at The Globe in 2018 was a classic, so do not miss this one!
