Debut album from Rob Gallagher and Alex Patchwork as The Diabolical Liberties.
The Diabolical Liberties will release their debut album “High Protection & The Sportswear Mystics” on 07 November 2020 via the boundary breaking On The Corner Records label - a bastion of oddball jazz and electronics from the worldwide underground.
Comprising Rob Gallagher (vocals, guitar, bass) and Alex Patchwork (head of square-pushing), the duo’s debut longplayer is a rough, unpolished gem of a record that falls clumsily in the gaps between post-punk, electronica and jazz. Lead single ‘Sliders’ embodies this identity crisis, simultaneously honouring and deriding the ubiquity of said footwear over resonant breakbeats, plonking cowbell and the screeching horn of Ignacio Salvadores (King Krule / Gal Go).[info sheet from distr.]
