No-Wave NYC band Pure Adult (Fat Cat Rec.), teaming with UK’s finest Cassels (God Unknown Rec.). Pure Adult are known for having shared the stage with acts such as Mdou Moctar, Gilla Band and APTBS, while Cassels are the amazing punk-infused garage-rock duo of London-based Beck brothers.

Pure Adult

Pure Adult is an experimental rock band from Brooklyn, NY. Originally a solo project of multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Snyder, Pure Adult later expanded to be a collaboration between him and contemporary dancer and visual artist Bianca Abarca. They have toured internationally with Gilla Band, Mdou Moctar, Bambara and Thank, shared bills with A Place To Bury Strangers and Mclusky as well as headlining their own shows in both the US and UK. In 2023, they released their first LP, II, on Fat Cat Records, two years after self-releasing their first EP, I. “Pungent chaos that serves no pomp, instead it throws around dark innuendo like a rag doll to the cadence of fury and fucking. The best album I’ve heard in ages. The best band you haven’t seen. Go dig, it’s beautiful at its worst.” - Joe Talbot, IDLES

Cassels

Finding humour in the seemingly inescapable collapse of the human race. It might not be the most conventional approach to a record, but Cassels have already proved themselves to be anything but traditionalists. Made up of brothers Jim and Loz Beck, the duo spent their youth rallying against the calm, countryside boredom of growing up in a small village in the Oxfordshire—developing a sound characterised by a maelstrom of erratic instrumentation and punk-inflected vocals. Over the course of two LPs, a compilation of early EPs and singles, Cassels have operated outside of strict genre distinctions, both accumulating a loyal fanbase and winning plaudits along the way. Drawing on influences from the agitated post-punk of Shellac to the rasping indie of Modest Mouse, it isn’t surprising that pigeonholing the duo is no easy task. Since their 2015 debut EP, “Hating Is Easy”, they’ve continued to evolve into an ever more indefinable outfit, all the while tackling weighty subjects ranging from social anxieties to estranged politics. The combination is an exciting, at times slightly intimidating, sound. Music for misanthropes and malcontents. Cassels last album, A Gut Feeling, was released in February 2022 via God Unknown Imprint.
