Ben Frost – Tour Dates
Ben Frost has just released details of his autumn live dates, announcing shows in Europe, Japan, Canada, US and Mexico. The tour starts on September 20th in Oslo and includes performances at Unsound Festival (Poland), Mutek (Mexico) and ClubToClub (Italy) – with further dates to be announced.
The album was performed by Ben Frost with Greg Fox, Shahzad Ismaily and Thor Harris and largely written in Eastern DR Congo. Starved of all the adornments of its predecessor (2009’s BY THE THROAT),
A U R O R A is wholly absent of guitar, of piano, of string instruments and natural wooden intimacy. Instead, it offers a defiant new world of fiercely synthetic shapes and galactic interference, pummelling skins and pure metals.
