joegarcia Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 My band ANTA are off on a few dates over the next week to promote our debut album 'The Tree That Bears The Equine Fruit'. You want to hear it? Hey, this is no problem. The recording is available in its entirety to stream on Bandcamp, which can be found here: [url="http://www.anta.me.uk"]http://www.anta.me.uk[/url] Though to save you the time & effort we'd describe it as monolithic, proggy and “seismically hypnotic”. Originally released in a handmade package with linocut artwork and a printed sleeve, it was later picked up by Diogenes (an imprint of INVADA Records) and sold as a beautiful limited edition release. People have said the following about the album: “If there’s ever a sequel to ‘Suspiria’, ANTA must do the soundtrack. Awesome.” Venue Magazine “The Tree That Bears The Equine Fruit’ is a direct rock hit, and you should let it take over your head.” The Joy Collective “Recommended in general to lovers of heavy psych” Prog Archive People have described our live shows as: “Anta’s symphonic doom is loud and slow, anchored by deliciously disciplined treacle bass and Alexander Thomas’s minimalist keyboards, regal and cyclic...like vast granite wheels implacably grinding human bones.” Venue Magazine “Pure Nouveau Prog with a real sense of adventure.. Fantastic stuff.” Rotten Meats blog May 1st – Manchester – “Sounds From The Other City” festival - headlining the Fat Out Til You Pass Out stage at Rovers Return [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=174838135901666"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=174838135901666[/url] May 5th – Bristol – The Croft (w/ Mugstar, Urethra Franklin & Squeeze Me Macaroni) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=137543622984390"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=137543622984390[/url] May 7th – London – The Unicorn (free entry! w/ Matthew Stevens & Efflux) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=100536953366305"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=100536953366305[/url] May 9th – Cardiff – Buffalo Bar (w/ Thorun & Pus) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=160626287331408"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=160626287331408[/url] May 12th – Cambridge – Portland Arms (w/ City Seventeen, Boring Girls & Squeeze Me Macaroni) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=173369062710739"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=173369062710739[/url] May 13th – Exeter – Bike Shed Theatre ( w/ Squeeze Me Macaroni) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=199558933416895"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=199558933416895[/url] May 16th – Bath – Green Park Tavern (free entry! w/ Thought Forms & Hysterical Injury) [url="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=141327865935623"]http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=141327865935623[/url] Midlands and Northern dates currently in the works for the summer, if anyone has any recommendations for suitable promoters or venues any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
