when youth met simon tong they were working together with the verve, and in between simon finishing sessions with gorillaz and blur, they sparked up a friendship and continued working together, developing twin guitar, instrumental epic soundscapes
this sound obviously needed more to it and so tim bran was invited to apply some stark metallic synths and beautiful epic pianos
then in spring 2005, at a malicious damage shin-dig, youth was re-united with his old killing joke bandmate, big paul ferguson when big paul heard the demos it didn't take much to persuade him to join the project
three months later the collaborators were laying down some of the heaviest and sublime music ever recorded at the legendary olympic studios... although it took six months to write, the album was recorded in three, hot steaming days in july, and now with the help of the pioneering passion of malicious damage records the project has finally come to fruition
these musicians have produced a sound and music unlike anything they've done before
this is a transmission where the music flows effortlessly, where the melodies are fearless, juxtaposed and complemented with raw and primitive rhythms that are brutally executed
sublime moments of timeless beauty, fragile and epic at the same time, vast dark geographies and previously uncharted maps of sound
the ep, noctolucent, will be released on cd & 12" vinyl on 24th july the album, beyond light, will be released on 21st august
