Beat Milk Jugs release their debut album
10 Years Of Hangovers on 21st February 2011
Nine tracks of haunting electronica laden with pop
sensibilities.
A
mysterious womans voice murmurs in Russian.
Hypnotic rhythms gently pulse, swathed in sumptuous
keyboard sweeps. This is the sound of open spaces,
of trains speeding through desolate snow peaked mountains.
New Order melding into Pink Floyd on the Trans Siberian
Express
An enigmatic collective with all the members in their
early 20s, Beat Milk Jugs originally hail from
the Latvian city of Daugavpils, but have recently
relocated to the UK where they currently reside, splitting
their time between London and Liverpool, although
it is more the soundscapes of Manchester which influences
their music and vocal style.
In the period since their inception Beat Milk Jugs
have appeared in Future Musics monthly Top 10
Reader Demos five times, twice being in poll position,
once with the now much sought after Caxap
track. In 2009 they signed to TV Records, beginning
work on their debut album.
With a strong visual side, the band, whose live shows
are augmented by evocative films and images which
add a whole new dimension to their sound, have recently
played New York, London, Liverpool and Manchester.
Beat Milk Jugs are currently working on their live
performance for dates to support the albums
release.
