FORMER JAPANESE TELEVISION MEMBER AL BROWN ANNOUNCES SOLO DEBUT ALBUM UNITE THE WORMS AS GOLDEN TOAD ON HIGHLY LIMITED (250) VINYL LP, 5TH SEPTEMBER.

An experimental amphibious amorphation, Golden Toad is the new solo project of Al Brown: former co-founder of Japanese Television, and video artist for Idles, Lambrini Girls, Unkle & Deap Vally. Over the summer of 2024, multi-instrumentalist Brown locked himself away in a garage studio in Kent, surrounded by prized roses, picket fences, fluttering Union Jacks, and wooden crosses. This seclusion resulted in debut album 'Unite The Worms', fusing electronic, krautrock and psych to create something truly mesmerising. Released as a single today, the chuggy electronic drones/screams of album opener 'Get Out' relate escaping an abusive relationship to choose life and independence.

With musical cues including, but not limited to, CAN, Silver Apples, Jon Hopkins, Four Tet, King Krule, and The Amazing Snakeheads.

'Unite The Worms' was produced by Chris Smith, who has previously worked with Hot Chip, Billy Childish and Kikagaku Moyo, and Four Tet championed electronic producer, Callum ASA. It's released by cult underground label, Tip Top Recordings (Japanese Television, Jim Wallis, Mandrake Handshake, Pearl & The Oysters), run by Ben Rimmer and David Warn. Proving once again that they are always ahead of the curve.
