Aughra - Sally Mason, Andi Jackson, Max Camp, Eleanor Battle, Gregory Creighton & Alex Cook
Recorded & Produced by Alex Cook
Mastering by Alex Cook

“An Aughra performance is a deceptive experience – let your thoughts idle for a few seconds and expect to bear the consequences.” (MIMR)

“Recalling the visceral power of Shellac and the heady atmospherics of Cocteau Twins, Aughra’s strength lies in their brilliant use of contrasting moods and textures - one minute languorous, the next snarling and carnivorous. The end result – as shown on standout songs such as Dead Weight and Corpse White – is the sort of bewitching, mesmeric brew that wouldn’t sound out of place on a David Lynch soundtrack.” David Sue (Manchester Evening News)

“Creating a brimming brew of dark, atmospheric sound steeped in textures, emotional energies and impassioned vocals – Aughra defy genre particulars and instead head straight for the eardrums. Some listeners may lose themselves in the band’s shimmering shoegaze quality, whilst others can thrash and roll with each wonderful weave of noir-rock riffs. This is genuinely interesting music, Sally Mason’s visceral vocals working with the skilled instrumentation of Simon Mayne’s lead guitar, bass from Rob Hatton and James Field on drums to open up tracks such as ‘Dead Weight’ and ‘Corpse White’. A merging of musicianship that develops Gothic-tinges into a gutsy punch over the course of each track.” Emily Oldfield (HAUNT Manchester)
