The first Australian band ever signed to illustrious Warp Records UK, Pivot are insinuating themselves into the upper echelons of experimental electronic-infused pop. Tonight their set includes songs from their highly anticipated new album.
Visceral and filled with surprising counterintuitive rhythms, Pivot's music sees warbling synth, 80s-sounding rock guitars and pounding drum interweaved with electronica to produce atmospheres ranging from lively to eerie to pulse-pounding panic. They have toured relentlessly across Europe and the UK, opening for Arctic Monkeys, Sigur Rós and famed electronic music pioneer Gary Numan.
