Pistols At Dawn
Tarnation started with mellow after-work sessions of acoustic guitars and programmed beats laid down as a tonic to the swarming clamor of London. The results sounded more like Bon Iver jamming with Massive Attack. If this was rock, it was rock in a horizontal fashion and was informed as much by the Beta Band and Wu Tang Clan as Four Tet and Mogwai.
Reflecting their philosophy and love of all things homemade, the band formed their own label, Tres Beau Records, to release the material. As avid gig-goers, the members are adamant that live performance should, as ever, be a cornerstone of the Pistols At Dawn experience. Here, Dave Williams adds his warm guitar tones to the mix, delivering a woozy textured sound to the audiences of London and beyond.
