Gestures Funny Games

Stockholm garage punk tio Gestures return with their eagerly anticipated debut album Funny Games, the band's most accomplished work today. After self-releasing the debut EP Shattered Mind in 2016, which was later picked up by Stockholm garage rock institution Push My Buttons (Holograms, Viagra Boys) for a vinyl release, Gestures signed with PNKSLM Recordings (ShitKid, Les Big Byrd, HOLY etc) for the release of the Bad Taste EP in November 2016. Shortly after the band lost their drummer but vocalist/guitarist Sick Vic and bassist Don Jovi quickly regrouped and set to working on their debut LP, which was written and recorded during the spring of 2017. A major step forward the band is leaving behind the lo-fi murkiness of their earlier releases in favour of a more confident garage rock sound, moving from quick fire garage punk to heavier and more menacing moments, bringing to mind the likes of Jay Reatard, Carbonas and Bass Drum of Death. One of Scandinavia's finest live bands, Gestures have been the go-to support pick for touring bands such as Moaning, Demon's Claws, Uranium Club and Girls Names.
