About

Sour Grapes Records presents...

Skiving

Skiving is an art rock 5 piece from London. Their music veers from post rock to delicate electronica to kraut riffs.
The band has developed a distinct aesthetic performing in "schlubby middle-management attire," turning corporate mundanity into sharp social commentary. Their debut album "The Family Computer" explores themes of wistfulness and nostalgia through their signature prog-punk sound.

Threads

Named after the 1984 apocalyptic war drama, Manchester-based four-piece THREADS's cynical but droll observations of the world around them feels timely. Teletext retains the band's rough and ready lo-fi sound - thanks to guitarist George Robbins's home-made pedals and tape-saturated vocals - but it is also a bold shift from their past releases as they step into more vibrant post-punk territory, supported by Shaun Rigby's hypnotic rhythm and the latest addition, Paul Hanley, on drums.
