Predominantly
adopting a neoplatonist dialectic approach, 41st night reinterpret the
pre-eminent cultural signifiers of late 20th century music through the
lens of post-colonial decline. Though normatively restrictive this
scheme is applied with generous and, at times, reckless abandon,
generating a cornucopic effusion of sonic delight.
Put another way: four guys, from London, playing hard/prog-rock and
occasionally over analysing.
Originally formed in the depths of Tower Hamlets, the original 41st
night line-up gigged around the London circuit to moderate acclaim,
establishing a reputation for loud, heavy, yet thoughtfully written
rock in, before the four founder members went their
separate ways.
Skip forward a few years, during which several members were involved
with the now sadly defunct Worshipful Company of Rock project, and the
'night are back, with a new lineup, a carefully crafted set of new
songs, and a distinctive sound honed by a gradual process of evolution.
With their flair for heavy, uncompromising, riff-driven rock, taking in
a range of influences too diverse to sensibly list, and with a new
front-man bringing a melodic edge, 41st night are ready to hit the
stage again.
