Trans Upper Egypt’s “Moon Doom” Arrives

TRANS UPPER EGYPT SHARE NEW SONG “MOON DOOM”

EPONYMOUS ALBUM OUT NOV 4TH ON MONOFONUS PRESS

Trans Upper Egypt have broke into our realm from Eastern Rome where concurrently they run their very own DIY space/venue called Forte Fanfulla that’s fostered a garage-noise scene and has allowed them to experiment with live visuals, the record biz and create linear, hypnotic music – a reflection of their love of Silver Apples, White Noise, Can, so on. Recorded in Forte Fanfulla, live to tape, comes their second full length LP, Trans Upper Egypt which sees its release November 4th on Austin’s beloved label, Monofonus Press. Check out their second single “Moon Doom” which debuted on Consequence of Sound today.

Regular touring throughout Italy, France and Switzerland have allowed Trans Upper Egypt to continue their polishing-not in the sonics, which remain fried as ever, but in the execution. After a 7″ on WORT Records and first full length, North African Berserk (Monofonus Press) the quartet remain tight as ever. Drums in constant motion and bass that moves from bouncy to sinister competing with the syncopated dissonance of two synthesizers-spaceage sounds melting into a chainsaw fight, punctuated by scorched vocals. Trans Upper Egypt is: Cheb Samir on drums / Tab_ularasa on oscillators & effects / Leo Non on vox & keyboards / Bob Jr. on bass.
