Snare

£15.30

From the shadows, each song emerges like a warning. In the exquisite handmade CD artwork mysterious figures are waiting and watching. A spy plane looms overhead while taught wires hold it all down.

BOO’s cold-war inspired SNARE traces echoes of a divided past into an uncertain future reverberating with the errors of history, and it does so in an electrifying way. Lush 70’s and 80’s analogue synths combine with solid beats and urgent songwriting that comes like a clarion call from the not too distant future: don’t get caught.
