Episode 49 - Thomas from Gazpacho on 'Demon'

Gazpacho are BACK. Their new album Demon is out now: a four song cycle based on “the mad ramblings left behind by an unknown tenant in an apartment in Prague”. So, the first of many questions asked by your host Billy Reeves to Thomas Andersen was “..what?” and the second was “how did you turn that into an album?” Hear their conversation herein, as well as excerpts from the album.

AND you’ll hear a couple of classics from The Pineapple Thief & Anathema, a reminder of Katatonia’s Dethroned and Uncrowned tour PLUS details of a special concert in London featuring Gazpacho, new signings Se Delan (who we shall hear from in the next podcast in mid-April) and a special acoustic set from Bruce and Jon of The Pineapple Thief
