SOFY MAJOR


We're much eager to announce that we're finally getting SOFY MAJOR into the Basement apes camp! As far as it is preparing, we'll split with a few other labels that count. Names to be unveiled and confirmed later. We listened to their new tunes and it is, believe us, over the top. 

They're currently booking their european tour, dates confimed as of now :
Oct 8 @ Pavilionul32, Timisoara, Romania
Oct 13 @ Squat Rog, Ljlubljana, Slovenia
Oct 15 @ Ekidna, San Martino Secchia, Italia


Some kind of biography here:

Sofy Major is a Noise Hardcore band from Clermont-Ferrand (France). They've been playing for 4 years, and toured twice across Europe (one french tour and one Eurotour) playing aproximately 60 to 70 gigs in six different countries. The band released three records : an eponym 12'' red transparent vinyl (CD version through Arghhh! Rds), a 10'' split vinyl with One Second Riot (a noise band from Lyon), and a 7'' split vinyl, released by IFB Rds, only in the US with american band Her Breath on Glass. Next release will be a tribute compilation for the french noise band Tantrum (also staring Knut, Membrane, Cortez...).
Getting their influence through heavy and noisy bands such as Barkmarket, Neurosis or Unsane, the band wishes to convey the Noise, Rock and Hardcore heritage of their french predecessors Condense, Hint and Portobello Bones.
Evolving through calming atmospheres, epic music, thunderous and incisive songs, the band shared the stage with Boris, These Arms are Snakes, Amen Ra, or Lack, in order to defend a sincere, ethic and powerful music.
