Hey Colossus play The Continental in The Boatyard with special guests TV Face and Hawk Owl.
Hey Colossus play The Continental (The Boatyard) in Preston on Wednesday 9 December, with TV Face and Hawk Owl on support. Colossus have been around since 2003 and are fifteen albums in now, a band that still feels very much alive. Their sound pulls from the repetition of Oneida and The Fall, with touches of Gang Of Four, Lungfish and Sabbath, and they release everything on their own label, Wrong Speed Records.
TV Face take the first slot. They describe their music as a 'green-screen love-hate letter to the 80s' and a satirical stab at the wolves of capitalism. Their album Wolf Rents Bark made the top ten of Louder Than War's top 100 Albums of the Year, and they've put out singles like 'Boots Pocket Coffin' on Crackedankles Records and 'White Noise White Lies' on a limited-edition lathe-cut 7" vinyl. They film their videos on tape in standard definition and have played venues like The Parish in Huddersfield. Hawk Owl round out the bill.
