Trogons flexidisc in NME!

With XRAY001 very close to sold out now, we've decided we quite like this label-running lark. The Trogons flexidisc seems to have gone down rather well, so thank you to everyone who has helped us make it happen, to those who bought a copy, and of course to Trogons for being our guinea pigs!

Before we move on to XRAY002, here's a scan from NME. Woop!

X-Ray Recordings presents XRAY001:

TROGONS

‘CONTINA’

SINGLE OUT ON LTD FLEXIDISC & DOWNLOAD APRIL 25^TH 2011

Tracklisting:

1. Contina
2. Protest Song No. 678
3. Where’s My Sword (download only)

Formed from the burnt remains and still-kicking bodies of various London groups, TROGONS have picked up a lysergically-stained and goth-whittled spear with which to stalk their deepest fears and dreams. Gemma Fleet of Kasms takes the vocal helm, steering a life-raft of fuzzed-up psyche guitar whirls yanked from the boards of the original nuggets artifacts, a keyboard drone that cloaks the craft in mystery and a locked-in rhythm section. The missing link between reverb-washed Siouxsie And The Banshees' night-creepings and the dizzy psychedelia of Californian travelers, like West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band or the Third Bardo.

Their new single ‘Contina’ will be available on limited edition hand numbered transparent flexidisc through X-Ray Recordings on April 25^th 2011. The flexi includes second track ‘Protest Song No. 678’’, with the iTunes bundle giving an additional third track ‘Where’s My Sword’. All tracks were recorded and mixed by fellow Kasms member and one time Test Icicle Rory Brattwell at his studio in East London.

Trogons are Gemma Fleet (vocals, bass), Andrew Robert Doig (guitar) and Phillip Edward Johnson (organ), Dean Hinks (drums).
