Bio
THEIRREPRESSIBLES play in the wasteland of our post-modern capitalist cultural burnout, playing with the embers, crying for their ruin, and making new inventions... Their name is a call to arms. They want to be part of taking us forward; they want a freedom... They do not pretend to understand you, they are only instinctive. They also do not want to play tired old games, so they get angry and break the old games and make up new ones. Their noise is an ever-evolving soundscape of texture, liberated emotion and play. From the abrasive to the sublime, they have no prejudice, as they have little concern for others’ definitions. Some say they make their own path... ...Listen? -

Sounds Like
A sublimely surreal sensation, an effervescent explosion of emotion, a fantastically florid fountain, a big bad Baroque shock

Fantastic show in Birmingham last night. Thank you.
Wonderful, amazing and enchanting performance last night in Birmingham (a relief to see you were playing there after finding I was already attending a gig the night of the London performance)
Awesome...in the truest meaning of the word.
This is the greatest thing that I eared in years, even the live performances, simply spectacular! Hope that they come to
Portugal soon!
Just drop by to wish you a merry Xmas :)
