Vor-stellen - Parallelograms

RELEASE: 2023

Featuring a cast of Flying Nun alumni, new experimental project Vor-stellen (Brendan Moran, Stephen Reay and Jared Johanson) have announced their debut release, Parallelograms, which is out via Flying Nun Records both digitally and on gatefold double vinyl LP on September 8th, 2023.

Vor-stellen is an experimental group that blends fixated guitars and drums with looped ad-hoc electronic layers producing perforated waves of uncanny vanishing sound which echoes off the fourth wall. Vor-stellen have set forth on an exploration, folding the weird and the eerie into a dark ecology of long-sound via indefatigable environments of modulation and improvisation, creating sonic counterpoints that hinge on a reanimation of musical gestures.

Steve Reay and Brendan Moran have worked together previously as avoid!avoid (their album Particle and Wave was released by Flying Nun in 2016) and with Jared Johanson as part of The Subliminals, from whom Flying Nun re-released a vinyl edition of their highly acclaimed album United State in 2021.
