Leftfield bass-centric alt-pop. After getting Mick Jones and Joe Idles to help out on the debut LP, Primitive Ignorant has stepped up to do most of the vox himself on Psychic Cinema.

Influences span Young Fathers, Yves Tumor, Nadine Shah, Ghostpoet, Ghost Town, Weatherall, Ashnikko, Warmduscher and Viagra Boys. And, as always, Sandinista and Iggy Pop (who inspired Psychic Cinema’s cover snap by Mr Steve Gullick. Symren Gharial was the bassist in Piano Wire and Eighties Matchbox.
