GIANT SWAN - Do Not be Afraid of Tenderness [E.P.] - 12" - Vinyl

Giant Swan are one of the most exciting artists to emerge from the UK underground in recent years. With equal appeal to fans of hardcore punk or noise-rock as club kids and clued up electronica fans, the duo toured relentlessly pre-COVID, playing everywhere from Berghain to Glastonbury to support slots with The Horrors and IDLES, and a series of 12″s on tastemaker labels such as Whities and Timedance leading up to their debut album. This first new music to emerge from the group in over a year epitomises everything that makes them so thrilling – mis-shapen techno textures, sub-bass and snatches of distorted vocals that create a unique interplay. Released once again on their own Keck imprint, and mastered by multi-disciplinary artist Russell Haswell, noted for his collaborative work with the likes of Aphex Twin, Mika Vainio and Merzbow.
