Cha Cha Cha 2000 is a brand new music by Prolapse from the album ‘I WONDER WHEN THEY’RE GOING TO DESTROY YOUR FACE’ to be launched 29 August 2025, the bands first album for 26 years. It was written in Leicester and recorded in Wales.
You’ll have learn Martin Grays Pointless Walks To Dismal Locations – thirtieth anniversary reappraisal and his Prolapse (the bizarre, fantastic and scary world of…) epic, so I received’t go over the historical past once more.
PR spiel : The brand new single sees Prolapse depart from the motorik beat. The music is a demented cha cha cha that is perhaps danced in a dilapidated ballroom. Singers Mick and Linda weave their phrases and melodies out and in: a tortuous story of 60s people singers, tiny hearts and movie star. In the meantime the drums swing and pummel and guitars jar and stab. The identical again and again however altering only a bit on a regular basis.
Prolapse shaped in Leicester within the early 90s and at the moment are unfold throughout the UK and Scandinavia. Nonetheless pursuing their very own path of repetition and twisted melodies, they merge influences from publish punk to krautrock and even people. Their earlier releases have included quite a few singles and 4 albums on numerous labels, together with Cherry Crimson and Radar. They function vocalists Mick Derrick and Linda Steelyard, whose intense duelling vocals mix with ferocious triple guitar assault and pummelling rhythms.
The fifth Prolapse album “I Surprise When They’re Going to Destroy Your Face” will likely be launched on Tapete Information and marks the bands first new recordings since their final album, “Ghosts of Lifeless Aeroplanes”, launched 26 years in the past, however in some methods it appears like there hasn’t a break in any respect. From the opening incessant riff of ”The Fall of Cashline”, Prolapse set their stall out, hammering the message that they’re again, time and again (and time and again) once more.
