In what will be their first North Island shows since the release of the ‘Glitter Guts’ EP, Knives At Noon announce four New Zealand concerts this November!
After an epic start to the year which included playing Homegrown Festival, opening for Vampire Weekend, two showcases at Brisbane’s Big Sound music convention and opening for Smashing Pumpkins, the band topped it all off when they released ‘Glitter Guts’ – a four-track EP that delivers some of the most intricate and high energy kiwi music heard for a very long time.
Hit single Violins and Violence has featured heavily on C4’s Decent Exposure for the past couple of months; introducing Knives At Noon’s fans to their distinctive and accomplished musicianship.
Expect these shows to sell out!
Here’s what the press have been saying about Glitter Guts:
“Every song on this four-track EP is memorable, unique and compelling.” – The Press (5 stars)
“…. expect big things from the initiators of ‘doom pop’ …. raucous and bursting at the seams with raw energy – a timely reminder that Dunedin is still a hot bed of musical artistry.” – Herald On Sunday (4 stars)
“It sounds at once international; effortless and chic, and yet something wholly kiwi shines through.” The Corner
“… it is a tantalising snap shot of a band in exciting form” – Otago Daily Times (4 stars)
“… a fantastic calling card of what they are about and precursor to what promises to be very successful.” – Cheese On Toast
