THREADS take their name from the 1984 nuclear nightmare film, which tells you most of what you need to know about their worldview.

The Manchester three-piece make a racket that sits somewhere between The Dead C's guitar abuse and Laddio Bolocko's rhythmic pummeling, but with a distinctly northern desolation. Drawing inspiration from CAN, This Heat, Guided By Voices, Stereolab, and My Bloody Valentine, bassist and vocalist Kane Martin explores the absurdities of now and finds poetry in overstimulation.
