EXEK are returning to Europe and the UK in May/June 2024! The Australian post-punk outfit will be promoting their latest record ‘The Map and the Territory’ released October 2023 on Foreign Records. The other reason for the tour is that the band is now ten years old. In that time, EXEK have released six albums, and have toured Japan, the USA, and Europe. Their sound is difficult to pigeon hole due to a wide variety of influences (punk, trip-hop, RnB, dub, kraut, avant-garde), but the general consensus is something in the lineage of The Fall, Happy Mondays, ESG, and PIL. 

For the band, the highlights are not fame and fortune (well aware of their slim odds), but more so finding recognition amongst the artists they admire and are influenced by. Whether it's supporting Liars and Anika, or being added to playlists by late greats like Mark Stewart and Andrew Weatherall. Come find them playing a town near you!

»BALM is a trio from Berlin. Balm has a mild post-punk approach with a warm and personal/emotional focus. They might swap Instruments to serve the song. Balm just released an LP on mangelrecords.«
