Spectres is a post-punk band hailing from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. With their formation in 2004, the band has been captivating audiences with their unique sound and powerful performances.

Comprised of Brian Gustavson on vocals, Mitch Allen on drums, Nathan Szilagyi on bass, Zach Batalden and Tyler Pilling on guitars; Spectres delivers an energetic and raw musical experience that leaves a lasting impression.

Influenced by the likes of *Belgrado*, *Arctic Flowers*, *The Estranged*, and many others; Spectres' music resonates with fans of the post-punk genre. Their distinct style sets them apart as they continue to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories.

Limited to just 200 copies in a PVC sleeve with art card insert. Spectres release two new remixes of tracks from their acclaimed debut album 'Dying'. Richard Fearless of Death In Vegas has reworked the already epic album closer 'Sea Of Trees' and, instead of playing up the original's krautrock groove as you might expect, he loops a five-second sample of the song's opening on a distorted synth, adds a pulsating techno groove and turns it into something that sounds like a long-lost Trax record. That slighty lo-fi edge is accidental - the track was finished not long after Richard DJed at Spectres' album launch show at The Lexington in London earlier this year, but the very next day his studio was broken into and his computer stolen. It contained not only the master of this remix, but almost all of his work from the previous 15 years and, despite appeals for its return, it has never been recovered. But, as luck would have it, he had made an mp3 version to listen to, and it was good enough to master from. There was less drama with Gabe Gurnsey's Factory Floor remix on the flipside, but no less excitement, as Spectres are huge admirers of the post-industrial electronic trio, even supporting them at an instore show in Rise in their hometown of Bristol. Here the original's wall of noise is held at bay, snippets of guitar and vocals breaking through as if phoned in from another dimension, while jerky, jittering rhythms hypnotise for just under seven minutes.
