Chiyoda Ku—an experimental post-punk/ math rock band from Bristol, UK—kind of sounds and feels like liquid speed. The drug. Not the ratio of distance. The droning math rock chords over shouting vocals and complex drum fills feels at bit Squids mixed with Black Country, New Road.
The band went on hiatus after years of extensive touring around the UK and Europe, numerous festival appearances, van-theft induced homelessness and a three-boys-1-room living arrangement above a Bristol Dive bar. Living in different ends of the country, they were no longer talking, they had flat lined. Half way through the main world event, a faint pulse could be felt between them.
Now they’re back with “Deal With It,” the first single off the upcoming Selecta Perspective album due April 21. The video features trippy, vintage camera work and lots of nature.
