EXEK Announce Fall 2018 North American Tour  Image

Soon after the release of their Ahead Of Two Thoughts album on Superior Viaduct's W.25TH imprint, Melbourne's EXEK will be making a highly anticipated run across the United States this Fall.

Following in the footprints of bands such as This Heat, Swell Maps and early PiL, the band is truly something to experience live. Highlights already include appearances at Gonerfest and Cropped Out, as well as a West Coast swing with Exploded View and a massive Halloween blow out with Thee Oh Sees. More info on the way soon!

"Skeletal dub...controlled cacophony...factory-floor drone...galvanizing Holger Czukay like monomania...inveterate inventiveness...and woozy winningness" - The Wire

"EXEK is spacey post-punk that invokes the ambiance of Swell Maps, Glorious Din, Au Pairs and Wire all at the same time." - Maximum Rock and Roll

"Ambitious and strange and irresistible" - Paste

"Simmers for so long, and with such care, that it reaches its ecstatic peak without effort." -Bandcamp

"Melbourne's EXEK execute a stark, dour DIY strain of dub that sounds like grimmest 1981 post-punk, and in 2018, that's paradoxically fresh." - Dave Segal, The Stranger
