“The Chicago trio’s second LP balances crazy-paving rhythms and synth-addled hyper-skronk with a new found melodic sweetness” **** Mojo
The Chicago rock band volcano! have announced three live UK dates as part of a European tour this spring.
Following the release of their acclaimed second album Paperwork last September, volcano! flew over for six weeks of intensive touring in Europe at the end of 2008.
“[Paperwork] will have fans of Deerhoof, Dirty Projectors and even latter-day Radiohead whooping with glee” ***** Time Out Critics’ Choice
In April volcano! will play three UK shows that will see the rock band join up with Leaf labelmates Wildbirds & Peacedrums for two UK gigs.
Volcano! are recording brand new material for a single to coincide with the European tour.
“After three minutes you’ll think you’ve stumbled across a new musical dimension… Imagine if Franz and Muse had been tutored by a laptop-wielding Beefheart” 8/10 NME
