Caretaker - Providence

Providence by Caretaker

Following releases from the likes of These Arms Are Snakes, Lords and Tropics, We Be Records are proud to announce the release of ‘Providence’, the debut full-length album from UK band Caretaker. After a lengthy absence, Hampshire’s Caretaker return with their most expansive and ambitious offering to date. Boasting a heavier, more progressive sound than on previous excursions, ‘Providence’ captures the intensity of the band’s visceral live performances whilst also offering brooding, fragile guitar pieces which provide brief respite amongst the chaos. Drawing on the raw aggression of acts such as Converge and Neurosis, whilst still accommodating the slow-burning intent of previous post-rock influences like Slint and Mogwai, Caretaker have produced a record that truly represents the full scope of their sound. Listen to Hellion : http://soundcloud.com/weberecords/caretaker-hellion The album will be released on CD (KONG003) and digital (KONG003D). Lead track Hellion has so far seen the band pick up support from Dan P. Carter on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, Ian Camfield on XFM Rock Show and Kerrang Radio. The band will be recording an XFM session for Ian Camfield on April 20th. Reviews confirmed so far in Kerrang, Rocksound, Rock A' Rolla, Total Guitar and Terrorizer. Caretaker will be touring extensively to support the release including a London release party at Camden Unicorn March 2nd  with Silent Front. Other dates confirmed include Bristol Cube 16th March, Exeter Cavern 17th March, Camberly Agincourt 23rd March with more TBC. www.caretakerband.com
