Band, *1999 GB, Manchester
Rock, World and Folk
Based in Manchester, Last Harbour are an expansive collective featuring an array of classical instrumentation as well as guitar, bass and drums. From dusty laments to doom-filled rock, from starkly beautiful duets to drifting clouds of looped noise, there's always an intensity that strikes hard. SUNDAY TIMES: "Magnificent." MOJO: "[last Harbour] exhibit so much literary dexterity and multi-instrumental skill you feel almost duty-bound to surrender." UNCUT: "Bewitching." DROWNED IN SOUND: "Rich and foreboding tracing a thread back to the post-industrial soundscapes of Joy Division." ARTROCKER: "The final frontier of funeral pop." METRO: "Classic outback brooding recalling the deathly pallor of contemporary Australians The Drones." CLASH: "A dark and dusty mood, perfectly realised." Last Harbour have toured and played with; Willard Grant Conspiracy, Dirty Three, Josh T Pearson, Michael Gira (Swans), Devendra Banhart, Black Heart Procession, Mark Mulcahy, & more.
