Dead Fader, as the name might indicate, is uncompromising, rude, dark, raw, blunt, ruthless, ear damaging, loud, dirty and delicious mercilessly. Out soon on 3×3, the label run by CLOAKS. They are a Brighton-based duo who create a crunched-up collision of dubstep, hiphop and electronica, encased in beautiful, crystalline distortion with detritus dripping from it’s pores (promo talk by the label). Autumn Rot will be the first 12″ on 3×3, after that Corrupt My Examiner the album will be released. Here are some tasters….enjoy.
