Pica pica, Pica pica! presents Bug Teeth + Manhole + Decent Wrestlers

Too damn right! Pica pica, Pica pica! is beyond itching to host Bug Teeth’s return to Norwich, the city where their journey began: are you ready to be bitten?

With rave reviews for their debut album Micrographia, tonight’s gig, featuring five green bug hats peeking above the stage, will conjure a world just beyond reach. Oneiric, spellbinding and insistent, harsh guitars and skittering drum and bass rhythms break through hazy ambient dreamscapes. Lyrics are direct and poetic, each song a slide beneath a microscope, examining the intimate, the infinite and everything in between.

“It’s a record that immediately proves Bug Teeth’s talent as individual musicians, their ability to create and drag you into a sonic world that is completely their own, and their collective penchant for genre-blending, dragging psychedelic ambience into electronic worlds… Even the gentlest of strums and smallest of songs become part of something expansive and eternal” Clash

With consistent radio and editorial support, alongside a growing cult following, Bug Teeth continue to evolve: shapeshifting, sprawling and spiriting listeners away into the space between waking and dreaming.

“Light as a feather yet heavy as lead… It dances like Tim Buckley, swoons like Mazzy Star… A haunting and deeply moving work of genuine depth and emotion. Another walk across the rooftops*” Louder Than War

Manhole’s melancholic and melodic art rock blends angular guitar work with drony melodies to create a sound that sits somewhere between post-punk and progressive rock.

Decent Wrestlers are the glorious collision of chaos and charm you didn’t know you needed in the search of the beauty buried in noise. The duo swings from shoegaze swoon to yearning indie-pop and slacker grunge sighs, which they say is for dreamers who like their nightmares loud.

* what a glorious reference: if you’re not already familiar, do check out A Walk Across The Rooftops by The Blue Nile but, most of all, do come to see Bug Teeth, Manhole and Decent Wrestlers
