leave land for water

Out of the ashes of former Output Records electro-acoustic maverick theboylucas, comes Bristol’s Leave Land Water. Formed in their native city in the winter of 2003, the expansive quintet release their debut eponymous E.P. in September 2005 on the ever-informed Sink & Stove Records, home to up and coming groups from both sides of the Atlantic such as The Vibration, The Playwrights, Controller Controller and The Organ.Following their being shortlisted in the top six groups at Dazed & Confused Magazine Annual Creative Awards, Leave Land For Water spent much of 2004 working on and taking what they do in the studio to the stage, playing numerous shows in and around the UK alongside Chicago-based art-core troupe 90 Day Men (Southern), Montreal-based group Fly Pan AM (Constellation), Leafcutter John (Planet Mu), Adem (Domino) and Clinic (Domino) amongst others, as well as playing at Bristol’s infamous Orange Ashton Court Festival.Their eponymous E.P., whilst retaining theboylucas’ understated electro-glitches, is a more full-bodied affair, tethering rhythmic post-rock textures to dynamic, twisting song structures.
