about

Emerging from the paranoid fog of their second album and into the fractured reality of 2020, TCCH wade into the murky waters of Life™️, armed with the gift of lazer guided cross-border telepathy and a renewed hope for something better.

Larry Ketang & Matt Wilson rise from this period of intense reflection in their hot-boxed isolation bubbles with the answer to life’s big questions, set to a score of skittering syncopation, deftly manipulated arpeggios and a crack team of restless spirits on vocals.

Guess what?

There is no answer.

But that's OK.

Baby, we’re just human.

And this is The Beginning of The End of The Beginning.

about

The Centre Cannot Hold Manchester, UK

Long-term inmates in the pop prison, Larry Ketang & Matt Wilson, continue to peel up the bottom corner of their tattered Talking Heads poster and chip away at the wall of sound. Help yourself to the nuggets. See you on the other side.
