London, UK three piece mixing gloom era Cure basslines with atonal Sonic Youth guitars

Emma Wigham, Mark Jasper, and Ed Shellard are Witching Waves, and they sound like exiles in their own country. And like all exiles, they know the only safety is in numbers, and the only comfort is in friends. Witching Waves come from a world of DIY and co-operation. Mark Jasper runs Sound Savers recording studio, a love of labor turned into a labor of love in one of the rapidly vanishing not-so-nice parts of London. Every window is filled with witnesses. We watch the world go by, each of us observing and observed. You can hear them switching instruments, trying out roles. Watching the world fall apart all around them, Witching Waves knows that being right is pointless--the television tells a hundred lies in the time it takes you to speak a single truth, and for every book you read, your neighbor reads none--but the only alternative is to participate in the slow silent psychic death that is mainstream 21st century life.
