Not Passing

Debut physical release by brother/sister duo Comfort. Based in Glasgow, Comfort combine aggressively attacked live drums with industrial electronics and synths with Natalie Comfort's raging vocals - brutal, honest, poetic, visceral, angry, and beautiful. A critique of gender norms and societal constructs but mostly a vulnerable, powerful personal perspective from outside the majority, Not Passing presents a crucial voice. Recorded in Glasgow by Helena Celle (Anxiety, Otherworld), a minimalist/maximalist formation with stark, thundering drumbeats often accompanying a simple synth line or bit-crushed sample. Each track tumbles forward, powered by Natalie Comfort's invective, sometimes painfully vulnerable and at others completely empowering. Includes 12-page lyric booklet and obi strip. Edition of 300.
