Following a cryptic post on social media, Belgian 5 piece post-punk/prog outfit The Guru Guru have announced a run of UK tour dates with a very special guest, The St. Pierre Snake Invasion. The dates will also include appearances at this year’s ArcTanGent and Portals festival.
Fans can check out The Guru Guru’s mysterious new track, posted on April Fools’ Day, and also stream their acclaimed album Point Fingers (2020).
The Guru Guru has been happily dealing in borderline rock since 2012, combining feverishly angular guitars with off-kilter, poly-rhythms all complimented by erratic and unhinged vocals. While TGG’s influences are drawn from the likes of METZ, Pere Ubu, Deerhoof, The Jesus Lizard, The Mars Volta & Andy Kaufman, the indie-math/psycho-noise rulebook is torn apart, resulting in chaotic songs that somehow seem to develop into wriggling earworms.

Praised for their live performances, The Guru Guru is a must-see… With palpable, electric energy oozing from the stage, vocalist Tom Adriaenssens balances on the verge of theatrical psychosis. TGG has made their mark playing across Europe sharing stages with the likes of Brutus, Raketkanon and Kapitan Korsakov as well as appearing at festivals such as ArcTanGent (UK), Portals (UK), Ment (SLO), Monkey Week (ESP), Rock Herk (BE), Sziget (HU) and Pukkelpop (BE).
