CONCRETE VEHICLES
Announce UK & European tour dates
Single “Cut Ties” out now via Dine Alone Records
Concrete Vehicles (formerly Computer) is a five-piece band from Vancouver that began as a recording project between lifelong friends Hudson Schelesny and Ben Lock, who have been making music together since they were kids growing up in Tsawwassen, BC. As their recordings became increasingly chaotic and nuanced, they outgrew the limitations of a traditional live band, inspiring them to expand the project into a larger ensemble.
Now a five-piece, Concrete Vehicles transforms their songs through a wide palette of instrumentation including saxophone, synthesizers, and percussion. Drawing from the diverse musical backgrounds, the band’s sound finds common ground between ’90s post-punk and hardcore pioneers like Drive Like Jehu and Dog Faced Hermans, alongside the abrasive experimentation of contemporary acts such as Death Grips and YHWH Nailgun. While their influences span countless genres, their creative process is united by a shared pursuit of music that feels immediate, physical, and visceral.
The band recently shared their new single, “Cut Ties”, out now via Dine Alone Records, and have announced a run of UK and European live dates this summer. The tour includes festival appearances at All Points East, Reeperbahn, Leffingeleuren and Platzhirsch, alongside headline shows in London, Southampton, Manchester, Bristol, Coventry, Nottingham, Edinburgh and Gateshead.
The magnitude of this release is something else, a track where intensity, tone and heaviness have been mixed to utter perfection. To hear the gripping tones bite through the crushing percussive beats and cymbal hits, and the damning low end fusing with the fierce vocal notes and synth tweaks. A track that showcases this dynamic push from start to finish, alternating the depths of this ensemble and allowing these mammoth peaks to resonate in the beautiful brutality that Concrete Vehicles has produced.
