WHAT IS FANGTROUSER?
Fangtrouser play oblique, groove-laden, cubist swampwaltz, laced with interludes of twinkling elizabethan neon folk. Pulling the notion of the song through a hedge backwards, the quartet's stripped, impassioned sound nods towards the usual krautrock suspects and 70s Midlands rock with morsels of brooding surrealist verse.
Fangtrouser were formed in 2012 in Market Harborough and feature Oliver BETTS (The Varp, Transparent Elves, Black Carrot) - Vocals, Keys, Woodwind, Mark HERDMAN (Palmer Eldritch) - Guitar, Geoff WILLCOCKS (Transparent Elves)
- Baritone Guitar, Dan EGAN - Drums
