Stream Dam Mantle's album First Wave

Glasgow’s Dam Mantle releases his debut LP First Wave in the first week in March through Wichita. It’s collects some of the tunes heard on previous EPs – ‘Rebong’, ‘Purple Arrow’, ‘Theatre’, the chopped-Disney strings of ‘A Statue That Is Perpetually Unveiled’ along with more explorations into gratifying beat-driven cut and paste weirdness. Plenty of oddness and bass to get lost in.
