RELEASE DATE

Rune Grammofon presents the brand-new studio album from
Volcano The Bear
, a calculated, hysterical melting-pot of
This Heat
,
Robert Wyatt
,
Faust
and
The Residents
, of musique concrète and ethno-folk, all seen through a prism of theatrical improvisations and unhinged set pieces. Formed in 1995, and after several self-released tapes and CD-Rs, VTB so excited
Nurse With Wound
's
Steven Stapleton
, that he brought his United Dairies label out of cold storage to release their first album proper,
The Inhazer Decline
, in 2000. Since then they've released music on such labels as Misra, Beta Lactam Ring, Textile, Digitalis, Pickled Egg, Alt Vinyl as well as their own imprints Volucan and Volfurten with the exceptional
Classic Erasmus Fusion
from 2006 being a possible highlight. On record, VTB offer stark and stunning absurdities in the most bizarrely beautiful way. Recycling and re-contextualizing their material is an innate habit, and the variety of recording options they might choose (be it a highly-equipped professional studio or a second-hand dictaphone) allows their craft to be formed in a myriad of different ways. VTB have toured extensively throughout Europe and North America and in concert they are the duo of
Daniel Padden
and
Aaron Moore
. Absurd humor and eclectic ways of producing sounds are characteristic of their live performances and their extensive knowledge of the traditions of experimental and folk music makes the band difficult to categorize. The band record everything they play and will often use these recordings as raw material for their albums. VTB have released a number of records since the start, often mixing studio, live and home recordings.
Golden Rhythm/Ink Music
is their first more or less "proper" studio album since
Amidst The Noise And Twigs
back in 2007. Largely based on the sonic fault-line between Aaron Moore and Daniel Padden, it's also the most focused and driven of VTB's prolific output so far, showcasing the duo's unique musicality and interplay, while retaining their trademark eccentricity and humor throughout. It presents "rock music" as seen through VTB's skewed eye, featuring more of Padden and Moore's drum/guitar combination than on previous albums. Taking the bizarre energy of their live duo performances into a studio environment, and combining it with VTB's eclectic instrumentation and
Clarence Manuelo
's singular audio-work,
GR/IM
shows VTB making their most vital work to date.
