Memorials

Dubbed “Stereolab’s evil twin” while on tour with them, MEMORIALS emerged from the collaboration between two film soundtrack composers. They have since developed a surrealist pop duo, displaying timeless song craft with avant-garde attitudes, drawing on both the familiar and the strange, while also treading new ground. Imagine Nico singing on a baroque pop record with CAN: they create cosmic journeys into psych rock, far-out folk and wild analogue electronics, fired by the spirit of free jazz. Sounding like an unearthed classic, MEMORIALS twist their influences into their own unmistakable sound, created utilizing analogue recording techniques, reel-to-reel tape machines and vintage effects.
