About Me

Formed in September 2004 in North London, The Perceval Gage play the best post-metal you can hear anywhere. Steve Rooney has recently left the Gage fold, but Dan Foord of Sikth has stepped into his shoes and is now stamping on the pedals and hitting the skins nice and hard. The new 3 track EP is about to be available by email , through Black Lithium Labs and at shows. There are limited edition hand numbered digipacks available, so grab your little piece of history. One day it'll buy you a house.Check out the blog for more information and details of the recording and gigs, or email [email protected] to find out more.Also, to get the latest, up to the minute info on Perceval Gage and to join the mailing list, send your name and email address to us either via myspace messages, or by email to [email protected] .
