Rammel Club #107

Soft Issues
are an electronic two-piece, formed in 2017 in Leeds and influenced primarily by noise artists and hardcore punk - producing the kind of manic power electronics that's as unsettling as it is exhilarating. Stripped back pounding rhythms clash against vocals which are processed to the point where there's almost no semblance of voice. Featuring members of The Shits and Cattle.
"Savage, earth-salting noise steeped in hardcore and punk." - The Quietus.
"This is urgent and rabid audio art that combines the fiercest sonic ends of power electronics, techno and rhythmic noise in a barebones, punk as fuck approach." - Opal Tapes

Lacrima
is Opal Tapes chief Stephen Bishop, also known for his mutilated dance music project Basic House. Lacrima's sound is steeped in (japa)noise in the vein of MSBR and Thirdorgan - A fractured palate of white noise shot through with stabs of abrasive industrial textures.
