The Wytches - Talking Machine
This product is available on Pre-order.
The Wytches return for their latest incendiary album, Talking Machine, the
Brighton 4 piece bringing a whole new avalanche of their undeniable psych
inflused jet black soundscapes alongside a pleasingly lengthy tour
"I saw the term "Talking Machine" in a book I was reading about Thomas Edison" lead
singer Kristian muses. "It was a nickname for gramophones. I thought that was fitting
enough for an album title but I guess like a lot of people, the whole AI thing has been
on my mind a lot and I saw a connection there too. Thomas Edison would host these
events called Tone Tests where he'd demonstrate how much audio recordings had
advanced by fooling the audience in to thinking they were listening to musicians
playing live but it was actually all pre-recorded, playing from a gramophone. People
feared that a lot of jobs in the entertainment industry and beyond would be replaced
by technology, a lot like what's going on now."
