DITZ + Gloin

About this event

‘Never Exhale’ is the sound of a band that hasn’t stopped for a breath. DITZ (UK) have toured relentlessly since the release of their first album ‘The Great Regression’ and even before

that, travelling at least 100 days a year since COVID. The songs that form their newest offering were written across Europe, often on off days and in borrowed rehearsal rooms just to break up the long drives.

It could be said that the band treat recording and release of music as an afterthought. Often playing songs live years before their release, tweaking them as they go. The songs on the final record may change before they are ever heard as part of the album.

**Gloin** “make driving, dark post-punk” (BrooklynVegan), adding noise rock and industrial elements to their music as they tackle themes of bewilderment, dread and anger. Using bombastic rhythmic constructs, savvy arrangements and fervid melodies, the Toronto outfit put forth solemn tracks about perseverance and self-determination that are cleverly subverted through sarcastic commentary, courtesy of their sense of humor. For things to come, the four-piece continue to refine their unique sound by way of All of your anger is actually shame (and I bet that makes you angry), a new raucous offering.
