Artist Biography
Hailing from Devon and based in Bristol, U.K., Spectres were a noise rock quartet combining elements of shoegaze, drone, indie rock, and, to some extent, post-punk. Made up of vocalist/guitarist Joe Hatt, guitarist Adrian Dutt, bassist Darren Frost, and drummer Andy Came, the group's harsh noise and uncomfortable swathes of distortion enveloped somewhat straightforward, albeit dark, melancholy pop songs, evoking pioneering noise acts such as My Bloody Valentine and the Jesus and Mary Chain. Their debut album, 2015's Dying, gained further comparisons to acts such as Sonic Youth and A Place to Bury Strangers. ~ Rob Wacey
