Event Details

Glasfrosch return to Howler to launch their new album Nocturnes. The follow up to their 2013 album Aubades,
Nocturnes completes the cycle, providing a darkened reflection to the light-hearted optimism that pervaded the previous work.

Glasfrosch is a unique and evolving animal. Exploring post genre forms through experimentation with sound art, jazz, cinema, poetry, noise, dance and punk. Glasfrosch make music that is colourful, dreamlike, and challenging.

In recent years Glasfrosch have performed some notable shows alongside the likes of Damo Suzuki, Pantha du Prince, and the Arcko Symphonic Ensemble. They coordinated a 17piece ensemble performance of Terry Riley's In C at Howler for the 2014 Melbourne Fringe Festival.

".[an] incredible Aussie 'alternative' band thumbing its collective nose at convention and commerciality and doing whatever the hell it wants to do, and the results are nothing short of stunning." - Beat Magazine on 'If You Go Far Enough into the Sky You'll Come Out Underwater (album of the week)

"Much like a mystery flight, you'll never know where they'll take you... And they'll take you some bizarre places... The ingredients are complex and combine in unpredictable ways... Glasfrosch are a surprising, amazing delicious treat for your mind." - Skylashes live review 2014
