MEMORIALS - There Are Other Worlds

MEMORIALS is the new band of Verity Susman (Electrelane) and Matthew Simms (Wire, Better Corners, It Hugs Back). Their music is a wide ranging combination of songs, psychedelic drones, free jazz freakouts and live tape looping. There Are Other Worlds was first released on the Stereolab Duophonic Super 45s tour complication cassette, which was given away at Stereolab’s 3rd Dec 2022 London show, where MEMORIALS played. Video filmed by MEMORIALS at Hove Museum, East Sussex, UK. It features a mutoscope/kinetoscope (a hand-cranked flip card picture reel) showing the very early short film ’Annabelle Serpentine Dance’ (1895) performed by the dancer Annabelle Moore and directed by William Dickson and William Heise. #psychedelic #psychedelia #alternativerock #freejazz #noiserock #tapeloops #arpodyssey #wire #electrelane #flipcard #picturereel #kinetoscope #mutoscope #annabelleserpentinedance #earlyfilm
