Gigan touring w/ Artificial Brain & Pyrrhon (who play Vitus with Tombs tonight)

by Wyatt Marshall

Artificial Brain at Saint Vitus in January (more by Caroline Harrison)

Oodles of noodles are headed your way as three of tech death’s most interesting young bands are hitting the road together. The tour, a model of modesty called the “Interstellar Intellect” tour, pairs Gigan, Pyrrhon and Artificial Brain and stops in NYC at Saint Vitus on 9/19. Tickets for that show are on sale now.

The three aren’t strangers to NYC. Pyrrhon is based in Brooklyn, Artificial Brain on Long Island, and Gigan was last in town last October when they played a show with Pyrrhon. Invisible Oranges presented the Artificial Brain record release show back in May–be sure to catch them. The singer, who sports wrap-around rec-spec-style goggles and an (albeit small) chain and intersperses sci-fi babble in between songs (that’s him up top), is fascinating to watch.

As mentioned, Pyrrhon are also playing Saint Vitus tonight (7/25) with Tombs, who are celebrating the release of their fantastic new album Savage Gold. Additional support is from Passage Between and the industrial/EBM project StatiqBloom, which is comprised of Fade Kainer of Batillus and Søren. Tickets here. Both Pyrrhon and Artificial Brain also play Long Island’s Obnoxious Noise Fest in August.
