Foot Village

Foot Village are a thunderous drum-n-shout assembly from Los Angeles –
a thick forest of whirling limbs beating out rhythms for whispers and
hollers to leap and dive through. Featuring members of Gang Wizard,
Friends Forever and the infamous International Voice of Reason, Foot
Village are pure hardcore spirit without the spark of
electricity.Erecting civilisation with drums and voices alone, Foot
Village are the first nation built after the foreseeable apocalypse.
Don’t get this self-imposed restraint confused with some neo-luddite
stance however, as Foot Village only want to inspire others with the
wide potential of rock music. Anything becomes possible if you have an
idea to run with.

This summer, Fat Cat records will release Foot Village's latest drum
ritual. Foot Village also has releases on Upset The Rhythm, Not Not
Fun, Absolutely Kosher, and Too Pure.

"wholly unhinged and chaotically great" 8/10 - Vice Magazine

"amongst all the depravity are solid senses of cultural response, DIY
ethos and massively catchy songs." - Dazed and Confused

"The group hurls themselves so devoutly into every second that their
urgency becomes contagious." - Pitchfork

“Of all the weird scum-hunch folk ensembles I’ve heard over the last
few years, Foot Village may be the most chaotic. Created and staffed
by members of some LA underground heavies, this is a rather masterful
effort, even when things are a little more controlled.” - Wire

“...percussion, played as if teasing a knot of wool into freedom; a
combination of rhythmic histrionics and cataracts of chafing abandon.
Yes, I have a feeling this “Foot Village” is going to be huge. 10/10 .” - Foxy Digitalis
