Threadpulls
Threadpulls are a band in Dublin city, Ireland. They are Gavin Duffy and
Peter Maybury. They made a mini-album called ‘Summer songs’ in late 2004
which was reviewed in ‘The Wire’ magazine and lead to them being invited
by Vincent Gallo to play ‘All tomorrow’s parties’ in 2005. Since then
they’ve either been recording or playing live very rarely. In December
2006 they released Fluorescent 1, 2 and 3, Each one limited to 100 copies
with individual artwork by Garrett Phelan.
Stripped back to a duo in January 2007 and never known to stick to one
style, they have made a complete u-turn sound-wise now having discarded
their customary off-kilter motoriks and feedback drones for a new upbeat
trip. Shows in Ireland and Europe are planned for this coming Autumn as
well as a brand new 7-inch record.
