Release Dates

65 Days of Static

Tour dates have been confirmed for the post-rock group, 65 Days of Static in September and November. The quartet from Sheffield is doing three gigs following the release of their live album, Escape from New York, at Digital in Brighton on 10th Sept, Manchester Academy on 17th November and Heaven in London on 18th November.

This largely instrumental group love playing live; in 2005 they complained that they had only played 91 shows in a year. Their penchant for touring means that they’ve developed a huge fan base appealing to the cognoscenti and hipper elements of the underground scene with critical praise from the musical press. In 2006 they played at the Summer Sonic festival in Japan and last year they supported The Cure on their North American tour.

With three critically acclaimed albums, The Fall of Math, One for All Time and The Destruction of Small Ideas, plus the recent live album, 65 Days of Static’s brand of music defies genres, mixing heavy progressive-guitar with live drums, keyboard and drum and word samples.

Live, their performance is riveting. Creative and atmospheric music combines with nervy, angry energy, frenetic drums and euphoria while guitar instrumentals either provide an onslaught or beautiful interludes accompanied by electric violins and melodic keyboard.
