The Arts Desk say some words about Flowers Must Die, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs and Kuro Maga at Supersonic Festival


They say this:

Kuro Maga
Agathe Max’s now expanded Kuro Maga combo similarly treated a full room to a set of drone music, classical sounds and modern jazz all wrapped up in a cloak of dry ice that had her audience spellbound.

Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs
Lively stoner rock five-piece Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs injected a bit more adrenalin into proceedings by running through the whole of their magnificent Feed The Rats album. “I am the demon!” howled singer Matt Baty as “Psychopomp” had men and women twice his age moshing like lunatics as the sweat poured down the walls in torrents.

Flowers Must Die
Closing the festival was Flowers Must Die who, like fellow Swedes Goat, take the psychedelic jam template and add motorik and Afro-beat flavours to get hips swaying and feet moving in a wild and intoxicating wig-flipping groove. Laying down tunes like “Don’t You Leave Me Now”, “Why?” and motorik jams aplenty from their Kompost album, their set was a tip-top ending to a tip-top weekend.
