Being a part of a rock band requires lengthy amounts of time on the road, especially when you’re travelling to the other side of the world. As such, a soundtrack is needed to guide their patience and keep them entertained. Ahead of their high-anticipated return to Manchester for a headline show at our venue, we spoke to Psychedelic Porn Crumpets to find out which tracks define the road for them:
“Being the road dogs that we are, spending so much time as a band on the bitumen, it does seem fitting and justifiable to put together a driving playlist for all of your speedy soundtrack needs…”
One Hundred Bats – Unknown Mortal Orchestra
“So much a tip of the hat to vintage, fuzzed-out ear candy and sabbath undertones. Still getting lost in last year’s EP from UMO, nothing tastier than Ruban’s guitar tones”
Psst… UMO are soon taking to our stage themselves!
Bees – Caribou
“I picture Dan on some rural Canadian highway, Convertible, top-down, black wayfarers, lit ciggie…class. This track and an open road go together like rubber and asphalt.”
