Mandelbrot Set are a Loud band. They like their drones and
their converse-gazing, they like to use sample pedals and to
change instruments during sets, but mainly they like to be
Loud, and they like to do it differently.
Formed by Keung, from the ashes of his previous band, Hentai (
"It's a relief to know that not all angsty teenagers listen to
Radiohead and spend the rest of their adolescence trying to
emulate Muse. Some of them stick Boards Of Canada stickers on
their guitars, acquire DD-5 sample pedals and violin bows, and
proceed to work the Mogwai-esque quiet - loud - louder -
FUCKING APOCALYPTIC dynamic till their ears bleed. So thank
fuck for Hentai." Drowned In Sound ), The Mandelbrot Set take
their love of all things Constellation,their penchant for
electronics, effects pedals and live sampling, their
Shellac-esque rhythmic aggression, and combine it all into a
wall of noise, melody and epic structure that would make Kevin
Shields weep with envy.
Joined by Simon on drums (formerly of a ska/punk/reggae band
called Supertrix), and multi-instrumentalist Melisa (onetime
percussionist for London Schools Symphony Orchestra, and
currently working on her Music BA in Norwich), the disparate
influences and creative energies of the three combine to
create a inspired pallette of sound and texture, a dense cloud
of harmonic resonance, yet timed with enough space and clarity
for all the individual elements to shine through.
