ALBUM LAUNCH GIG CONFIRMED FOR OCTOBER 23RD AT THE 229, LONDON. TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE
Featuring thirteen tracks of future-drenched psychedelic Sci-Fi laden punk-rock n’ roll, following on from their (astounding) debut “SawnOff Shotgold” which landed a mere 5 short years ago, Circle 60 return once more with their new opus “Gods Of Dimension”, due for release October 24th via Octophonic Records.
CIRCLE 60 - once described as “a neuer Klang sonic assemblage of psychedelic-punk art and Sci-fi melodics” are composed of members and collaborators of Gorillaz, Muse, Delakota, Penguin Cafe, Senseless Things, Loup GarouX and more. Taking their “kaleidoscopic katalysts” from early British hallucinogenic pop and raw punk abandon – they deliver a “heady messy concoction of neural disturbance and explosive rock action, Verstehen?”
Today, listeners are treated to another sweet taste of the album’s charms in new single ‘The Sonic Invisible’. It’s an explosive melee that effortlessly manages, in less than three minutes, to perfectly encapsulate Circle 60’s union of punk frenzy and swirling garage psychedelia.
“The Sonic Invisible track is inspired by an underground club night that takes place in various clandestine locations around the UK. “A spiral staircase navigating your mind” - its members believe that there is a cogniscient force that pulses throughout, and outside of, all creation - an all-pervasive vibration that penetrates the totality of existence,” explains Circle 60’s spokesperson, The Octopus. “It is beyond thought and beyond definition. And it’s undetectable - unvisible - to us, physically, but most recognisable as…music. The Sonic Invisible is the very sound and essence of existence itself. We felt it was important to get its name out there. With music.”

Circle 60 were birthed out of the irradiated glow of late-night sci-fi reruns and cemented over their mutual love of discordance, technology and big filthy punk hits. The band – made up of Cass Browne, Morgan Nicholls, Ade Emsley and Des Murphy - are veterans of too many bands and numerous genres, but were compelled to combine everything they knew and loved into this one pure musical and unmedicated chemistry. And an overwhelming desire to make new technology scream. It’s rarer than Haley’s comet to get these four unique talents to collide at the same time, but it seems their time is now.
Early demos were sent to The Damned’s Captain Sensible who immediately stopped baking his Sourdough loaves and sent them something back hurtling through the crackling ethernet, in the form of a blistering set of guitar lines. This became “Mother Laudanum” – the first cut transmitted from the new album (watch the video HERE), which came accompanied with its own highspeed “tear-up-round-Paris” video. But of course, this was just a warning.
“Gods of Dimension” is an exceptional collection of superlative melodics, wildly gifted guitars, unfathomably talented bass and drums that would make Keith Moon himself scratch his head in complete bafflement. It’s real life-affirming frequency-filling stuff, designed to race the blood and lift the soul. Gods of Dimension explodes like a black hole swallowing a Moog synthesizer, spitting out choruses that sound like a riot big enough to sink a falling starship. And the message is delivered with crystal clarity: each track written and recorded at 432Hz, this single-loaded shotgun 12”, thirteen-track smart-bomb has been designed to cover every frequency known to man - the very loudest, clearest and most pristine piece of vinyl achievable. Circle 60 aren’t trying to paint the future —they’re trying to destroy the concept of time altogether. They’ve already outlasted several civilizations. Yours could be next.
Their last live activity – due to support The Who at arenas in Manchester and Dublin – got shutdown mere days before the concerts due to the wonderful gift of global lockdowns and Covid-19. The more suspicious would claim a deliberate sabotage of their mission.
But – now – they’re ready once more. They will be live. Their one and only album launch show now announced! - “Turn On, Tune In, Turn Tables”
Circle 60 play “Gods of Dimension” at the “The Sonic Invisible” 229 Great Portland St, London W1W 5PN on October 23rd.
