The Quietus Interview Anthroprophh










The Quietus have just published a interview with Anthroprophh about his debut solo album out now on Rocket.


Altered Head Space: An Interview With Anthroprophh  


Anthroprophh, the new project of Paul Allen of Bristol voyagers The Heads, blasts off into inner space via kosmische drone and acid-frazzled guitar workouts. He speaks to Joseph Burnett about how writing his debut album provided a creative shot in the arm.


"The intention was to create music in [a psych-rock] vein, as it's a genre that dominates my record collection, but I wanted it to be a bit more sparse and minimal as the record went on, and not just sketches." Paul Allen, erstwhile guitarist with Bristolian heavy psych band The Heads, is discussing his new solo project Anthroprophh, whose debut self-titled album has just been released through the ever-reliable Rocket Recordings, home of Gnod, Goat and Teeth Of The Sea. Anthroprophh essentially encapsulates the sound of modern psych-rock, as espoused by all those bands: it's heavy but subtle, driving but fleet-footed, taking in a range of moods and atmospheres, the kind of music you can head-bang to gleefully in a mosh pit, or be serenaded by as you while away a sleepless, hash-hazed night. It's a style anchored in the rock traditions of the post-'67 era, but equally one that's keen to look forwards as well as back.

Adventures in Soundscape give their praise to the Anthroprophh LP


Adventures in Soundscapes reviews the Anthroprophh LP, this is what they say:


"The arrival of the self-titled, debut album from Anthroprophh on Rocket Recordings offered some extra excitement as it brought with it the unknown, names and psychedelic lineage that I recognised but the music, oh the music, I did not know and I got to step into the unknown… a world created by Anthroprophh that offers a vision of the night, where electronic machine grooves meet fuzz drenched guitars and psychedelic rhythms.

Where the Kandodo album hinted towards the rising of the desert sun, the Anthroprophh album talks of those hours before sunrise.

Hermit Opens with a shrieking burst of psychedelic fuzz and a thunderous, pounding rhythm… hard, fast and heading straight for the heavens…"

Buy exclusive ltd 'World Music' and 'Goatman' posters




We have got together with Cargo to produce two A2 Goat posters.

One is adapted from the World Music sleeve and the other is taken from the Goatman 7" sleeve artwork. Both are shown above and can be bought together for £7.99 from Cargo's website.

The posters are printed on a very thin stock but the paper really picks up the colours really well and look stunning framed.

We are not making any more of these so once these are gone, they are gone... there will be no more reprinted.

You can buy the posters from here: Cargo

Teeth of the Sea' appear on this months MOJO cover mount CD


Teeth of the Sea have their track A.C.R.O.N.Y.M included on this months MOJO cover mount CD. It is a CD compiling the best of modern psychedelia(??) featuring Toy, Animal Collective, Moon Duo, Tame Impala, Shjips etc.

Teeth of the Sea are half way through writing and recording their new album which we hope will be out late summer. And contrary to what it says in MOJO, the album will not be called 'Sweaty Foliage' or 'Spawn of Dudley'! Looks like MOJO'S researchers use joke tweets as their source for information.

Echoes & Dust Review Anthroprophh

















Echoes & Dust review the latest Rocket release: 

Anthroprophh - s/t

Anthroprophh is the new project for Paul Allen, while it seems that the band he is better known for The Heads are on hiatus. The Heads for anyone who doesn’t know them are a force of nature who took the essence of grunge bands like Mudhoney and mixed it with the joys of sublime UK bands like Loop, Spaceman 3 and other primeval space cadets like Hawkwind and Can. Paul’s guitar was like a cudgel, bludgeoning you repeatedly in to ecstasy with riff after fuzzed up riff.......

Normans gives Anthroprophh a 5 star write up


Normans, one of the best record shops in UK have given a little 5/5 write up of the Anthroprophh album, which hits the shops on January 28th:


I know from our sales figures that a lot of you are already pretty into cult UK psych titans The Heads, so you probably don’t need me to tell you that Anthroprophh is the alter-ego of their visionary songwriter and axe-mangler Paul Allen, who here dishes out six lengthy tracks of krautrock-infused psychedelia which ranges from hard-riffing psych fuzz to burbling ritualistic mysticism like a trippy modern take on the Hawkwind and Can traditions which seem to be all the rage at the moment.

In fact the out-there twiddlings on ‘Precession’ very much remind me of Michael Karoli, before things head in a bit of Popol Vuh direction and things get real trippy, continuing the synth ritual feel into the second side with ‘Ende’ and ‘Entropy’ also both heading deep into this hypno-synth-raga psych choogle wilderness to intoxicating effect, sometimes heading into krautrock steeped in the free-bong landscapes of Expo 70 and Sun Araw and striped with neon guitar shapes. Then things go a bit spacekraut again on the closer ‘We’ which is like Sylvester Anfang II gently covering ‘Black To Comm’ by the MC5 in an opium den. What are you waiting for? It’s time to smoke up and drift away. *****

"You will scream at the horror of it" – Drowned in Sound say a few words about the Anthroprophh LP


DIS (aptly named) usually ignore our releases but they have just published a review of our forthcoming Anthroprophh album. Though we don't think this reviewer is much of a fan judging by this 2/10 review:


"One Friday night a few winters ago I went to watch a game of rugby in Northampton under a blanket of frozen fog more impenetrable than I could ever recall seeing in my hometown. The mist swamped the pitch, rendering the game entirely unwatchable; quite why it ever went ahead is beyond me. The players, unsighted too, communicated solely by voice and eschewed any passing lest the ball sail wildly toward a fortunately-placed opponent, instead choosing to pick the ball up and run forward into a meaty form (the defensive strategy was apparently 'hit what’s in front of you'). At one point someone scored but it wasn’t given because the referee couldn’t see it happen.

Sitting in the cold, extremities numb, hip flask at home and balls presumably now frozen to a plastic seat with not enough legroom and straining to catch a glimpse of two uninspiring sides slug it out in the gloom was up there with the most unpleasant Friday nights I’ve had in Northampton (which is going some). It is however the one I recall most vividly when listening to the self-titled début album from Anthroprophh, aka The Heads’ guitarist Paul Allen.

The album is coming from a good place at least. The Heads are an acclaimed underground rock group, who, in the Nineties, offered a tonic for grunge and Britpop, gaining great acclaim for their psychedelic sound blended with Krautrock influences, heavily concentrated here. The problem is that whilst all of the Krautrock staples are there – Motorik beats, clanging industrialised guitars, heavy drones – they are never used to amount to anything, instead just thrown together with seemingly little care or apparent intent to make a song out of them: if Family Guy ever did a joke about Krautrock, this is how it would sound.

‘Ende’ is the most obvious example of what’s wrong with Anthroprophh (apart from my clumsy attempts at typing it, ho ho ho), a quiet fuzzy kind of drone that last for six minutes, complemented by... oh wait, nothing. ‘Ende’ is six minutes of a cold and hostile fog lifting temporarily to allow the audience a view of what lies beneath: pure and relentless inertia. Elsewhere the guitars drone slowly and listlessly, clouds of noise that thud slowly into one another. The drums crash and break to create a violence that’s unpleasant and distancing rather than threatening and visceral. Tracks such as ‘Hermit’ and 16-miute dirge ‘Entropy’ embody this perfectly; their sound is a grey verging on black that obfuscates whatever intent toward creating something that Allen may have had. Rather than intrigue though, the murkiness leaves the listener bored at best, and looking for a way out at its nadir.

A press release rarely captures the true spirit of an album, but Anthroprophh’s inadvertently does so. 'Heavy on the the planetary rhythms, laced percussive half man, half machine grooves... the oscillating neuronal discharges of instruments induce the long distance pattern of synchronization, corresponding to the moment of perception itself' it, ahem, explains. It’s the musical equivalent of corporate management speak, impenetrable nonsense that on this occasion embodies the heavy metal nothingness hissing through the speakers, the dismaying sensation of watching Prometheus on an aeroplane TV with 3-D glasses on.

Anthroprophh is an album with pure, cool Microsoft Excel running through its veins. I did however finally manage to get one kick out of it. Listen to Anthroprophh on repeat and contemplate the vastness and endlessness of the universe and our meaningless existence: you will scream at the horror of it."  2/10 Dan Lucas

We have bolded out the last part as even though it is obvious this sort of music isn't Dan Lucas's cup of tea, we feel that he sums up the sentiment of the album really well with that last sentence!!

'Boing Boing' makes Goat's World Music their album of the year


Website Boing Boing make Goat's World Music their album of the year, this is what they say:

01
Goat – World Music
I don’t think music has made me this happy in a long time, and by that I mean happy like a drunken satyr being torn apart by a group of hallucinating maenads. This mysterious group of loa-possesed musicians have formed a secret society of heavy guitars, feedback, and screaming vocals. It’s like everything you’ve heard before transformed into something you can’t believe you are listening to. The first time you play it don’t be surprised if you just start laughing from the sheer giddy pleasure of this ecstatic religious feast.

Cardinal Fuzz are proud to present Anthropropph and Big Naturals



































Cardinal Fuzz are proud to present:

Anthropropph and Big Naturals

Friday 22nd March 2013
Wharf Chambers, 
Leeds

----------------------------------

Legendary guitarist from The Heads, Paul Allen, has stuck out in his new guise of Anthroprophh. Although The Heads were pretty damn far out, Anthroprophh ploughs further into deep space, channelling his love for all things Kraut, psych, prog and oddity. A new record is due in January on the legendary Rocket Recordings described by Julian Cope as 
'Frenzied monster truck haulages and organ-based Mithraic burn-ups of the Agitation Free variety' 
facebook/Anthroprophh

Fellow Bristol-ians Big Naturals will provide the 'Proff's primal rhythm section for the night. Big Naturals have recently released their debut on their own Greasy Truckers label to rave reviews. Arch Drude Cope-y enthused that Big Naturals '... come across like an ambient Crass performing the Who’s entire TOMMY soundtrack in the style of MOUNTAIN GRILL-period Hawkwind. That harsh, me babbies! That sweet, me kiddies!' 
bignaturals.bandcamp

Also on the bill are Liverpool's very own Mugstar. Kings of instrumental space rock, who have just released Axis - a perfect synthesis of Hawkwind style interstellar rock and post punk grind. 
'Rarely less than utterly transcendant…. Glistening, interstellar sonic glory' Rock Sound

Support comes from Manchester band Dead Sea Apes. This trio have become masterful at creating huge vistas of sounds. A perfect concoction of sun-scorched psychedelia, raga infused improvisation and classic kraut-rock circularity, Dead Sea Apes recall Grails and Barn Owl at their best.'Stunning, visceral and downright thrilling... you’re going to have to trust me on this one – Dead Sea Apes are really something very, very special indeed.' Terrascope

----------------------------------

Wharf Chambers is a members' club and you need to be a member, or guest of a member, in order to attend. To join, please visit wharfchambers Membershipcosts £1 and requires a minimum of 48 hours to take effect.

Introducing GNOD - Chaudelande - for the first time both volumes complied onto one CD


























Gnod’s Chaudelande Vol 1 & 2 vinyl only albums on Tamed Records (tamedrecords.com) have become a thing of infamy as two of the greatest slabs of beat driven, shamanistic space noise to of been released over the past few years and we at Rocket Recordings are proud to announce that we have brought these two mammoth LPs together for the first time on CD and download. The limited edition CD digi-pack (Launch054) will be available on the 25th of February.

The collective that is Gnod has risen out of the DIY ethic of Manchester’s Islington Mill. Central to the ethic is alternative approach to musical creativity and freedom of expression with no regard to established opinions. Gnod is a state of mind. Those who seek Gnod, will find Gnod, the universe is centred on neither the earth nor the sun. It is centred on Gnod.


Recorded in Studio Chaudelande, France, ‘Chaudelande’ takes Gnod’s convulsive vision, straps on electrodes, charges the amps, then overstimulates the vital organs as a torrent of contorted sounds akin to the likes of Pil, Hawkwind, and the Butthole Surfers lignite like an arc-flash repetitive blaze.


The epic pilgrimage that is Chaudelande will take the listener on a ride through the narrow chinks of the cavernous mind in the frenzied spirit of This Heat, Sunburned Hand of Man and the repetitive beats of Krautrock via Wax Trax.


So come join the cult that is Gnod’s ‘Chaudelande’ as once again the band deliver another jolt to the unsound mind.



















TRACK LIST:
01 TRON

Head Medicine award Goat high accolades for World Music and an interview


Head Medicine have awarded Goat the following accolades:

"World Music" - 2012 Album of the Year

"Goatman" - Song of the Year

Best New Artist


And after the interview the website did with us at Rocket, Head medicine have asked Goat some questions and drew a great illustration of the band to accompany it.

This is how it goes:


"Last year at this time, virtually noone knew about the music of Goat.  they were a band hidden away in an isolated communal village in deepest Sweden called Korpilombolo, a village with a mysterious voodoo history.  music has always been a large part of their commune's way of life and Goat claims to be continuing their ancestral musical collective consciousness, still heavily influenced by the voodoo rhythms of the past and assimilating music from every corner of the globe to create a revolutionary mix of sounds, void of trends or styles or genres.  Goat's debut full length album, "World Music," has been universally acclaimed by people with taste around the world, landing on many reputable year end best-of lists. until only recently, they had never performed live outside of their commune, but they are now bringing their music to the rest of the world, putting on a handful of amazing live shows in europe and preparing to carry it over here to america for a series of dates as well in the spring. 

the first sounds transmitted to the outside world by Goat was on the "Goatman" 7" single released by the psychedelic UK record label Rocket Recordings in February of 2012 (check out HEAD MEDICINE' interview with Rocket HERE, which details their discovery of the band).  the song is utterly amazing and was the easy choice for the Song of the Year..."

Goat make Roadburn's end of year poll


We are pleased to announce that Goat have been awarded th prestigious number 3 spot in Roadburns albums of the year.

This is what Walter the man who runs the festival says about the album:


3.Goat – World Music
“From the tremendous Afro groove that defines the album to the killer fuzz / wah guitars, Turkish rock, kraut repetition, astral folk, head-nodding psych and stonking afro percussion, Goat’s World Music will undoubtedly add to the group’s much talked about mystique –could there be truth to the rumor about an ancient voodoo tradition that can be traced back to Korpolombolo, a small and very remote settlement way up in northern Sweden? Call me a worshipper! Call me insane! Skeptics, beware! Goat will convert you!” — Walter Roadburn.



See the full rundown here Roadburn

And don't forget Goat, Hills and Teeth of the Sea are all playing Roadburn in April
