Press Text
Taking their name from a post-soviet satire by Ukrainian author Andrey Kurkov, Death and the Penguin have created their own brand of avant-garde alternative rock.
London-based four-piece released their debut album, Anomie, on 27th July 2018 (Lonely Voyage Records). The album has received critical acclaim from the likes of Alt Dialogue (9/10) and Metal Injection (8/10) and features the singles Kill Saatchi ("a perfect equilibrium between disjointed key signatures and catchy instrumentals" - The Line of Best Fit) and Colour In Me ("a devastating bout of avant rock that breaks down barriers into tiny little pieces” - Clash Magazine).
On the back of the release and a stand-out performance at ArcTanGent Festival 2018, the next year is set to be a big one for the band.
