about

Black Hearted Brother synth-man & song-writer Nick Holton and Ian McCutcheon (Mojave 3, Loose Salute, Slowdive) lead out their new band HOO. Rich analogue textures and guitar drones star on free form synth experiments reverse fitted to psychedelic songs imbibed with a dusty Englishness all of its own.

Other musicians present include sonic blue blood Neil Halstead (Slowdive) on his Roland Juno 106, Kevin Wells on dirty rhythm guitar & lastly the great Oxford songwriter Robin Bennett on flute. Mostly recorded in HOO’s chapel-like studio 'Oaks Room', full of 1/2” tapes & analogue echo units and a little at Cube in Cornwall. Finished in Brooklyn NY by Heba Kadry - who has worked with Beach House, John Maus & Slowdive.

Centipede Wisdom offers a complex array of feelings and settings, but it flows together and feels complete although changing over the sides. Throughout, is a skewed sense of wonder and playful exploration with genuine political bite hidden in the tall grass.

"An Elegant low-key exercise, off kilter electronic throb, drifting toward inner space." Mojo 8

"Combining old-time psych Seventies electronics reincarnated as post-rock drone, and throwing in dream pop as an extra." Sound Blab 8/10

"Psychedelic shoe-gaze whirl of drone guitars and dreamy synth- complex but accessible" Telegraph 8/10
