about

"Receptacles make music that disturbs easy categorization. While listeners may hear influences from no-wave, afro-beat, free jazz, funk or punk, Receptacles are not simply a mix of these styles. They have harnessed an essence of spontaneity and in doing so have created something unique and completely their own.

Receptacles wilfully instigate and manipulate an elasticity of form, key, tempo and metre. The absurdist, spoken-word lyrics act as the lynchpin in the reckless, hectic, headlong, joyful collision of rhythms and riffs. An anarchistic relationship to group dynamics ensures a strong, original, unified sound, where the sum is more than the parts, and yet the parts are more than the sum."

What if Captain Beefheart had cut his teeth listening to The Fall instead of Howlin’ Wolf and Bo Diddley? The result might have sounded like Receptacles’ new album, ‘That Explains Everything’, a near-perfect example of the “jazzed up punk shit” that Mark E. Smith once preached about but never quite produced.

What a fantastic find. Throws all of my love for Wire, Minutemen, The Waitresses, and every other herky-jerky art-punk band, into a blender and comes out better than a kale smoothie. But beyond the nostalgia factor, these are sharp songwriters and arrangements. Excited to see them live tomorrow night! Ragle Gumm

In Threes
by Handle

supported by 5 fans who also own “That Explains Everything [LP]”

The group plays in the minimalist vein, leaving ample room for each of the instruments, brilliantly maintaining narrative tension, and yet able to play with the sound in a light-hearted, frivolous manner. In Threes might just be music for our times – quivering, convulsive, spurted out towards the listener. At the same time, though, it brings a certain katharsis, translating the experience of our difficult reality into the language of music.
