THE K. - CROWD OF CHAIRS

"There is chaos here, catchy and full of twisted melodies, splintered drumsticks, and a crushing heaviness."

After two years of near total absence, the trio The K. returns with a new album, scheduled for spring 2020. A record announced as the finality of a group entering its maturity phase, but whose members have not yet taken the time to settle down, wielding irony as the only weapon in the face of existential void. The ten titles recorded by Tim De Gieter (Amenra, Brutus,…) and written by the original members of the group, Sebastien von Landau and Sigfried Burroughs are accompanied by a new bandmate on bass: Gregory Danger

Crowd of Chairs

Crowd of chairs is a Belgian noise rock/post punk band based in Ghent. The band consists of guitarist and vocalist Mitch Van Laecke, bassist Benjamin Caes and drummer Manu Mahie. Founded late 2014, the band got picked up fast by national promotors and grew up to one of the most exciting Belgian alternative rock acts. Think Liars (US), Metz (CAN), Part Chimp (UK).  They released a second full length in February 2020. The band signed on Sentimenal, match made in heaven, as they both scan boundaries and never willing to compromise. Sentimental is a Brussels based young and independent label that focusses only on vinyl and cassette releases. Crowd Of Chairs’s new album titled ‘Mod Kid With Dog’ is a mixture from Noisy guitars, floaty yet intense bass lines and kraut-ish and complex rhythms. New on this release, compared with their debut from 2017 ‘Fuck Fuck Fuck’ is the importance of multiple vocals and Harmonies. Think of blacktop biker music played through the art-rock filter.
