  • Description

    Tel-Aviv's Acollective make their triumphant return with brand new album 'Pangaea' - coming via Alcopop! Records.

    Locking themselves away in an old shoe factory in Tel-Aviv, the band set to work on the follow-up to 2011's 'Onwards'. The result is 'Pangaea', a worldly and wonky, caustic and cohesive, mellow and marauding album that reflects the huge breadth of influences the band count as their own. Ask them who they listen to and they'll tell you Sufjan Stevens, Beck, Paul Simon and Radiohead. Delve a little deeper and you'll learn about their love of everything from Dixie Jazz, Japanese Pop and old-school hip-hop to modern-Arab-kitsch.

    With influences spanning the globe, it's befitting of a band who cut their teeth playing guerilla gigs across Tel-Aviv and who wrote their first album in the confines of a London flat, having travelled to the UK after a mate hooked them up with a tour.

    Since then, Acollective have cemented themselves as a band to believe in in Israel (with sell-out tours to prove it!); have played international shows and festivals at the likes of Glastonbury, YNOT and SXSW; and are now set to return to the UK & Europe for a host of shows and festival slots throughout June & July.
