Retriever are the dark underbelly of the Newcastle music scene. They are a frenzy of thick fuzz-bass, jagged reverb laden guitar, cutting drum-machine beats and screeching feedback topped with a slice of bitter female vocal. It's a formula that since first playing in 2009 has seen them gain acclaim with support slots for The Slits, These New Puritans, Dum Dum Girls, Crocodiles and Yuck among others as well as playing the Evolution, Middlesbrough Music Live and Tramlines Festivals.
After releasing debut single ‘Murder/Lion’ last September on Newcastle based Splash One Records 2011 has already seen the band collaborate with Berlin based producer Headman on both his track ‘Blue Girls’ and remixes of their own ‘Murder’.
These are now followed by the release of the bands first EP The Rattle And The Hiss. Recorded in Newcastle by Splash One the 6 track EP is being released as a split with A Splash One. Having previously overseen releases by Kasms, Project:Komakino and //TENSE// to name but a few desire will be releasing a limited number of 300 12” vinyl copies along with downloads available through iTunes, Amazon and 7digital. The Rattle And The Hiss is set to propel Retriever to new heights.
