Factory Floor are a London-based three-piece that are super into no wave, weirdo dance music, and basically just being those people who make you feel bad about your own/your band’s own level of coolness. I mean, this band supported Throbbing Gristle’s Chris & Cosey for a performance at London’s prestigious Institute of Contemporary Art back in 2011, and then later had Chris Carter performing with them at various European summer festivals. They’re so cool, they’re like cartoon dog wearing a Hawaiian shirt and reflective shades riding a skateboard COOL. And from now til September 8, they’re curating a residency sorta thing at the ICA. That’s like, cartoon dog wearing a Hawaiian shirt and reflective shades riding a skateboard WHILE SLAMMING A MOUNTAIN DEW cool.
And now the trio of Gabe Gurnsey, Dominic Butler, and Nik Colk Void are finally releasing their debut album. After a series of buzzworthy singles for Optimo and Blast First Petite, the group is releasing their self-titled debut full-length on DFA Records on September 9. It took nearly two years to record, but the band has big plans this fall, including a slew of summer festival dates, and a tour to regions as-yet-unknown. Album #2 is already in the cauldron, being stirred by several art witches till it’s ready to be unleashed onto the world.
