All Things In Modulation

Ether

Rumoured to be “demented instrumental acid-rock with robotic melodies that sound like party music from an episode of Doctor Who" or "a three-way tug-of-war between frisky, soulful garage rock, frenetic funk, and swaggering 70s proto-metal" - Protovulcan is actually just Deric Criss (Aleks and the Drummer, Walking Bicycles) on drums and Will MacLean (formerly of Mercury Rev offshoot Variety Lights) on moog bass, wurlitzer, and vocoder.

From energetic & driving, to wistful & reflective, The Manic Deep draws from a wide range of influences spanning Alt Rock, Shoegaze, and Dark Wave. Noteable influences include DIIV, True Widow, Naked & Famous, The Horrors, Joy Formidable, Autolux, BRMC, The Killers, My Bloody Valentine, and Slowdive.
