A Biting Wind Followed by an Occasional Drift of Snow (Was no Way to Cure a Hangover)
Tracklisting:
1. A Biting Wind Followed by an Occasional Drift of Snow (Was no Way to Cure a Hangover)Mix grubby chants, pounding drums, clean acoustic guitar, and a bass distorted through a tunnel of echo and grit. Add the sound of coin being tossed and the chimes of polish clock and drive it through wires, microphones and metal, and it creates VEGC, after intense and illegitimate breeding with Jethro Tull. Like the last album, but heavier, proggier, darker, louder, and fed through a meat grinder.
The Victorian English Gentlemens Club get pleasure from building cold-hearted, bass-heavy music with all of their drums, lungs, hearts and guitars. They also use an electric mandolin, an Indian shruti harmonium, a VEGC-made bow-screamo (wire nailed to wood and played with a bow), sparrows and a church bell hit with a hammer. They listen to Liars, Grinderman, '154' by Wire, Deerhoof, Cardiacs and 'Flowers of Romance' by PiL.
They are enjoying being a loud, dark, experimental pop band with sticky fingers and dark minds, making songs with three notes and four hundred thoughts. They like to play in tall places, on grass-covered grounds and in water-based areas. They like bright lights, deep dark holes and flags. They are three.
They have released two albums, the self-titled debut in 2006, and 'Love on an Oil Rig' in 2009. Many miles have been toured and noise has been created in the UK, mainland Europe and the USA, breaking hearts, drum sticks and many essential engine parts along the way.
