Too Pure

In 1998, drummer Emma Gaze and multi-instrumentalist Verity Susman formed the British indie rock band Electrelane in Brighton, England. With various personnel changes over the years, including guitarist Mia Clarke replacing Debbie Ball, the band released their debut album. Bassist Rachel Dalley played on early singles and the first two studio albums, "Rock it to the Moon" and "The Power Out." In 2004, fan-turned-member Ros Murray took over bass guitar duties. After a last home show in Brighton in 2007, Electrelane went on an indefinite hiatus.
The band reformed briefly in 2011 for a few gigs and summer festivals. The following year saw more summer shows, including performances in Australia and Hong Kong. Since then, Electrelane has returned to an indefinite hiatus after that final tour. In 2013, record label Too Pure reissued their studio albums on vinyl.

Too Pure was a London-based independent record label formed in 1990 by Richard Roberts and Paul Cox. The label gained prominence after the release of PJ Harvey's debut album Dry in 1992, with funding support from Ivo Watts-Russell, founder of 4AD. Too Pure later became majority owned by the Beggars Group. In April 2008, Beggars Group decided to retire the Too Pure imprint and transferred key artists to their subsidiary label, 4AD. The label operated a monthly subscription service called The Singles Club until December 2017 when it ceased operations. Today, its catalogue is part of Beggars Arkive.

Back in stock. Having perfected a brand of playfully experimental indie-rock on their previous three albums, culminating in the messy, fitfully thrilling 'Axes, No Shouts, No Calls' sees Electrelane ploughing a much more linear furrow. For the first time, song craft and way with melody is pushed to the fore in favour of an immediate, often catchy sensibility. It's a bold move, one that will irk the purists, but it's one that feels entirely natural and a big, brave step forward for the band. This directness still comes allied to the influences that have driven Electrelane's sound thus far (Sonic Youth, Stereolab and Neu!).Lavish Deluxe Double LP.
