“Lebanese duo Snakeskin lurk within dark folk-tronic fissures and explore shapeshifting shoegaze-dreampop” - BOOMKAT
Debut UK show from Beirut-based duo Snakeskin, fresh off the release of their acclaimed sophomore album ‘They Kept Our Photographs’ via London’s Mais Um label .
The duo of Julia Sabra (vocals, electronics) and Fadi Tabbal (electronics) are stalwarts from the alternative Beirut music scene and they describe Snakeskin as “electronic dream pop shapeshifting above ambient and industrial undercurrents”.
RESIDENT ADVISOR - NO.4 IN THEIR 'BEST TRACKS OF 2024'
"Snakeskin's second album is fuelled by a sense of anger, melancholy and defiance. Its pièce de résistance is the ominous and introspective "Waiting"
"They Kept Our Photographs feels as if from Bjork's extended universe, with more of a Broadcast-y thrum than Medulla and more of a shoegazy wooze than Vespertine" - DROWNED IN SOUND - NO. 10 IN THEIR ALBUMS OF 2024
"The album is able to reach deep emotional depths by tempering dream pop's sweet-natured reverie with experimental snarl ... the duo captures a year of grief with hauntingly resonant dream pop" - RESIDENT ADVISOR - RECOMMENDED ALBUM OF THE MONTH
