Everything is always changing in ‘Third Time At The Beach’. The album shifts from lush piano balladry to crushing industrial, and from swampy avant-garde compositions to triumphant rock freakouts. Employing vocal manipulation and field recordings, as well as cutting together studio recordings and home demos, the band produces a spatially elastic, collage-like effect. The album, like the ideas being reached within it, presents a work-in-progress.
Lyrically, the record employs a scattershot style to present the experience of learning (or ‘unlearning’). The listener visits ancient civilisations, the Industrial Revolution, outer space and the land of the dinosaurs: encountering mediaeval farmers, silver miners, cavemen, Napoleon and Satan.
TONIGHT!! 11:30PM we headline The Sportsman’s at @simplethingsuk in Bristol for our first show back, playing the new music for the first time. Join us in your millions.

And there you have it. The European tour is now done. Kisses to these criminals below - @licebristol for bringing lots of youth bizniz to the procedures. Thank you to all of you who came to see us. Take care. ❤️
The response to Putin has been far fiercer + more unified than he expected - democratic states have shown a confidence and strength that has been lacking for 20 years. Good intelligence, the right calls from US, UK and EU + of course Zelenskyy himself have made a real difference
@licebristol are a band that has quickly established itself as possessing all the intrinsic, integral post-punk criteria; but reconfiguring the nature of the modern album format and thus, upon taking such a risk to release a Concept as the Debut.

#BREAKING Polls are set to open in 48 hours across the US as the authoritarian regime of Donald Trump attempts to consolidate its hold over the troubled, oil-rich, nuclear-armed, north American nation. Analysts are sceptical the election will end months of political violence.
