THE GAA GAAS
SINGLE: V.O.L.T.A.I.R.E. / V.O.L.T.A.I.R.E. (PUNX SOUNDCHECK REMIX)
LABEL: THE PLAYGROUND RECORDS
RELEASE DATE: 31ST OCTOBER 2010

"What an amazing sound." 
John Robb (Membranes/Louder Than War)

"New Blood"
Artrocker 

"Thoroughly bracing."
The Pixzine

"It has an almost anthemic quality which, in the right setting (i.e. a dingy, low ceilinged cavern full of dry ice), could easily inspire an audience into a snakebite fuelled frenzy." Dominion

"A band for whom the study and judicious appropriation of 80s goth music’s finest moments does them immense credit…few are able to carry it off with such contemporary style."
The Brighton Source

"A single that's tense and sparse and adrenalized…It's retro, it's got groove and put simply, it's ace!"
Whisperin and Hollerin

"I expect great things from these fuzzed-up freaks. "
God Is In The TV

"A band blending good old fashioned punk rock, danceable elements and a goth tinged atmosphere…attitude laden with abrasiveness and full frontal bravado."
UK Music Review

"There’s a menace here that imagines a studio scuffle between prime time ‘psyche’ era Killing Joke and the late 70’s recalcitrance of the Stranglers. Classily caustic."
Losing Today

"Sleazy, scuzzy, quirky, discordant and loud – so what’s not to like?"
Loud Horizon

"An innovative slab of space age indie pop brilliance."
Rock N Rolly

"The Gaa Gaas have a hell of a lot of potential and make a kind of music that is, in this form, very rare nowadays…. with lots of unhealthily-glowing slime that is thrown right in our faces"
Oh Fancy Magazine (Germany)

"Upon hearing the yelping vocals and loosely plucked bassline I was absolutely blown away by the track."
Snob’s Music

Following on from the release of their punk crazed EP entitled ‘Repulsion Seminar’ which initiated a massive buzz surrounding the band, Brighton’s The Gaa Gaas are now set to cause more mayhem with their raging new single ‘Voltaire’ which will be the first release on newly founded The Playground Recordings.

Produced by James Aparicio (Nick Cave, Mogwai)and mixed/mastered by Robert Harder (Brian Eno, The Slits), this raucous and ear-splitting track which is to be released on 31st October 2010 creates a relentless dark resonance, with its pounding bass line and rhythmic guitar riff calling to mind a gothic-tinged version of The Rapture. Lyrically, lead singer Gavin superbly compliments the constant, pulsating drum sequence with his loud, persistent and in your face vocals. The B-side features a banging electro remix produced by Kitsune heavyweights Punx Soundcheck.

After performing various European festivals this year, the band have confirmed a number of upcoming gig dates including the Monto Water Rats on Sunday 10th October, their ‘V.O.L.T.A.I.R.E.’ single launch at 93 Feet East on Saturday 30th October, and Berlin’s Bang Bang Club on Saturday 13th November.

Today's Wormfile single is a ridiculously hard hitting and tripped banger of a tune from Zenon Beatz and Outsider. A dark and vibey intro gives way into a wonky but thumping drop with impeccable sound design and vibey and ethereal breakdowns. Be sure to keep an eye on these talented producers, and expect a lot more tunes like this one on the way!

Zenon Beatz & Outsider - Blowing Up

True Romantic (2019 remaster)
by Dub7

This was from our arty period as 007 was morphing into Dub7. At the time I recall we were trying to approximate King Sunny Adé‘s jùjú sounds. But listening now I can also hear The Stranglers (circa Feline) and hints of New Order along with our dub elements.

Produced and mixed by Mr Beautiful
Recorded at Radiobeat Studios in 1983
Engineered by Lou Giordano
Vocal and guitar: Larry "Wrence Fer" Williams
Guitar: Steve Harrell
Bass: Kenny Epps
Drums: Garry Eaton Miles
Percussion: Brett Campbell 
Keyboards: John Goetchius
Special thanks to Jon Alper for digitizing the legacy tape source 
Remastering from Lo-fi source by Wrence in 2019
Opening sound is a Korean monk chanting the Heart Sutra. Outro music is from D0c Beats
