Protomartyr on 12 August at The Brudenell
Protomartyr — the Detroit post-punk band composed of Joe Casey (vocals), Greg Ahee (guitar), Alex Leonard (percussion), and Scott Davidson (bass) — “are sounding as vital as ever” (Stereogum). The quartet’s their new single/video, “Elimination Dances,” is from their anticipated forthcoming album, Formal Growth In The Desert, on Domino. Post-quarantine, Casey and his bandmates regrouped with a sense of uncertainty, questioning if and how to continue after the turbulence of the pandemic years. The single is named after a chapter from a 1950’s teen dance manual. “Elimination Dances” referring to a game where “you get tapped out when you lose the dance,” and that felt an apt metaphor for just surviving. Life is a struggle, but “you might as well keep dancing until the tap comes,” Casey says.
