More about the band & their upcoming release:
South London band PVA’s stunning debut album BLUSH consolidates the beating pulse of electronic music with the raw energy of a life-affirming gig and reveals more about the trio than they’ve ever previously shared.
The eleven blistering tracks from the group, Ella Harris and Josh Baxter (who share lead vocals as well as handling synths, guitars and production) alongside drummer and percussionist Louis Satchell, are made from a formula of acid, disco, blistering synths, the release of the dancefloor and queer-coded sprechgesang post-punk.
On their debut album PVA carry that same energy from the live circuit, while also building out a holistic world full of texture and heart. BLUSH is rich with industrial-sized beats that pack a heavyweight punch, jagged punk spirit, and moments of hushed contemplation from Harris’ poetic lyrics. It sprints tirelessly throughout, linking influences including Portishead, PC Music, Laurie Anderson, and cult rave-pop duo The Pom-Poms with ease.
The album was produced by the band alongside friends Ben Romans-Hopcraft and Jamie Neville over a two week period at Neville’s home studio in south London. They then mixed the record at FOLD, the club hidden away on a trading estate in Canning Town. One place intimate, another industrial; this is PVA’s world.
Sister Ray Says : PVA's first EP toner hit it out of the park with not just the original tracks but the remixes that followed (their collaboration with Mura Masa was nominated for a Grammy). This new album is the perfect mix of going to a gig and going to the club. It's immense but also has softer moments throughout. 'Untethered' and 'Hero Man' are just a sample of what's to come on the three-piece's debut album. This isn't one to miss out on, let alone a Dinked version at that...If you can see them live, we'd highly recommend.
