A formidable, vital band. They sound like everything you love and nothing you've heard.

Protomartyr ask the big questions: what is the meaning of life? What does it mean to be human? What is truth? The answers take them down some dark, labyrinthine paths – but at the end is always illumination, and a spark of meaning in a senseless world.

Protomartyr play angular, bleak, intelligent post-punk. Equal parts The Fall, Mission of Burma and Gang of Four. There’s poetry in their lyrics, and shards of insight in their songs.

Protomartyr’s music offers a small light in the darkness, while never denying that we are all just standing in the dark. They’re important, abrasive and spectacular. We’re hugely excited to bring them to China for the first time.  June 16 in Shanghai at Yuyintang. TICKETS: https://yoopay.cn/event/PROTOMARTYR2018
