Warmduscher - Too Cold To Hold (CD)

Comprised of Clams Baker Jr., Benjamin Romans Hopcraft, Adam J. Harmer, Marley Mackey, Quinn Whalley, and Bleu Ottis Wright, Too Cold To Hold is undoubtedly their best and most ambitious album to date.
Taking on board the repetitive and polyrhythmic grooves of gqom (an alluring South African take on house music), adding in a dash of hip hop flavours and even jazz, and then harnessing that to their punk-funk, disco pogo, it’s a spellbinding mix.
The album is produced by the band’s Ben Romans Hopcraft alongside Jamie Neville.
Warmdsucher were born in 2014 out of a creative collision between members of various prominent bands and this spontaneous formation resulted in a band that was not just a side project, but a musical force that would soon carve its own unique niche.
Over their four previous albums, Khaki Tears (2015), Whale City (2018), Tainted Lunch (2019) and At the Hotspot (2022) the band have worked with some of the most respected producers including Dan Carey and Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard & Al Doyle and gathered praise and fans alike for their DIY spirit and effortless ability to blend genres fearlessly.
A legendary live act, driven and led by the charismatic Clams Baker Jr, they are one of the most exciting bands to come out of London in recent years with their music a staple of the 6Music playlist over the years.
Too Cold To Hold sees the band stretch out, open up and produce their most dazzlingly eclectic and honest album to date.
