I hadn't planned on going to this at first, but I'm able to get down to review it for Leeds Music Scene, this should be pretty interesting a night, to say the least!

Stephen O'Malley + Kogumaza @ Brudenell Social Club
Tickets available from Wegottickets, Seetickets, Jumbo, Crash.
* Please note that there will be a VERY comprehensive backline and it would be wise to bring earplugs.
Stephen O’Malley
Stephen O’Malley was born in New Hampshire, USA and raised in Seattle. He eventually spent a decade in New York and presently is based in Paris.
As a composer and musician he has been involved in hundreds of concerts and performances around the world over since 1993.
O’Malley is a founding member of several groups including Thorr's Hammer (1993), Burning Witch (1995), Sunn O))) (1998), Khanate (2000), KTL (2005), Nazoranai (2011), ÄÄNIPÄÄ (2011) and others. He is a frequent collaborator of many outsider musicians, artists and composers in various formations, in concert and studio settings.
"In so far as they may expand on the O))) principles albeit perhaps a more sculptural and angular direction; the extended solid and geometric aspects of the guitar and amplifiers, sound pressure, volume and temporal structure as ambiguous and solitary form."
More information about his work is available at: www.ideologic.org/
Kogumaza
Kogumaza formed in Nottingham in 2009. They use primitive rhythms, patterns and riffs to create dense and mesmeric song-cycles. The band’s live sound is manipulated through dub delays and echoes, allowing what is basically a heavy rock trio to expand and willingly lose control of the sound they make as they make it.
The resulting music marries fuzzed-out psychedelia to an ambient aesthetic, placing the band somewhere between the infinite repetition of Moondog, the thick gloop of Master Of Reality-era Sabbath and the hypnotic pulse of Lungfish"
We formed in 2009. There are 4 of us. Our band name is spelled K O G U M A Z A. We record music for the Low Point, Lancashire & Somerset and Gringo record labels.
