about

RELEASED ORIGINALLY VIA CUSP:
cusprecs.bandcamp.com/album/by-order-of-the-toad

"Gemma Fleet (The Wharves, Thick Syrup, Rainham Sheds) and Robert Sotelo (Upset the Rhythm) relocated to Ibrox in Glasgow end of Summer 2017,where they met and subsequently began making music with drum expert and coffee aficionado Christopher Taylor under the guise Order of the Toad.

Setting up in the flat they all shared, the true and perfect dream of playing music every night in their living room was realised and 10 compositions were born from this unique circumstance.

These songs now equal ‘By Order Of the Toad’ the trios debut.

Recorded live to tape with the absurd and talented Luigi Pasquini, and later mastered in a sonically tailored environment by Martin Ballesta, the album is a snap shot of relocation, a social icebreaker between new friends and a reunion for Fleet and Sotelo musically as it guides a similar path towards the sound of their previous outfit Trogons: Laurel Canyon hippiedom x medieval inflection + early REM spareness = OOTT. Except nothing like that."

This album is one ridiculously massive inundation of relentless, rampaging, punkish, riff-packed psychedelic noise. An acquired taste that tortures your taste buds until its flavour becomes delicious. muschiosauro
