About This Event
Establishing themselves as a vital new voice from Leeds' ever-evolving underground, The 113 evolve with it. Abrasive dystopian statements on surveillance, data harvesting and the quiet unease of modern digital life. The band describes its "new sound; desperate and panicked", the group blisteringly hurtles forward with a compelling urgency, propelled by discordant guitars and thunderous offbeat rhythms.
At times an almost uncomfortably prescient and claustrophobic listen, 'Leach' finds frontman Jack Grant unleashing both a rallying cry against the advancement and negative impacts of big tech, and an honest admission of powerlessness and inevitability in the face of it all: "Me, you or half the planet, what's the fucking difference? I'll be stamped within the spreadsheet with little to no resistance".
