INSECT ARK

Definitely one of the most desired names of the last few years of Amplifest, both for the public and for the festival itself, Insect Ark will finally come have their Portugal premiere at a time when they are reaching absolute critical mass – with leader Dana Schechter fully established in the Swans’ line-up as well, she is now flanked by Tim Wyskida, drummer for Blind Idiot God and the returned Khanate. A mighty pair that arrives at Amplifest armed with Raw Blood Singing, the astounding new album that promises to deconstruct and reimagine the already unique noise/drone/doom/whatever else the band usually plays.
