About the event
SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE -
California duo bearing an armful of mini synths and a pocketful of Tarantino-dusted riffs who make heart-throbbing, capital P pop punch with more than a hint of post-punk. Blaisdell’s vocals hearken back to open hearted 80’s hitmakers unafraid to quaver in the name of love, and they’re buoyed by Jones’ laser-gridded synth concoctions and heavy hand on the ones and twos. The self-titled debut via Castle Face Records has seen the band invited to perform in many new countries as well as lengthy tours across the USA, the road awaits…
System Exclusive [Castle Face Records] will be returning to the UK & Ireland in September 2023.
'A track full of throbbing and almost abusive goth synth-rock that keeps it coming in a bizarre cycle of hypnotic bliss.' - Glide
'Marries current garage rock with classic synthpop a la The Human League or Depeche Mode' - Brooklyn Vegan
'Suddenly, this unassuming glide has turned into a super-sonic flight. It sounds like a mix of My Baby’s voodoo psychedelia and Peter Bjorn and John’s 'Young Folks,' and it’s awesome.' - The Revue
