Hiding out in London's warehouses and squats, 52 Commercial Road have developed the post-rock sound far beyond the loud-quiet riffs we're used to. Emotive soundscapes built on fragile foundations become crescendous taking the listener to introspective worlds never explored.
Their self released debut album has sold hundreds of copies and we are lucky enough to be working with them on a forthcoming EP. 24 is taken from their first record and is available free here. Download it, listen and spread the word!
I first came across the guys at Area10 in Peckham where they played a stunning set for the Treehouse Gallery Warehouse Party. Recent gigs include a VHS Video Basement show at the infamous Mayfair squat "Puss in Boots Strip Club"(RIP) and a live soundtrack played at Le Palace cinema, Brussels for the Matarcar collective.
Keep your eyes open as the live show is not to be missed.
