Renowned for their DIY ethic and cult following, Ist Ist self-release through their Kind Violence Records label. Their music has received acclaim from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music, The Times, Radio X, and more. Following European and UK tour dates this autumn, they’ll wrap up the Dagger tour with a hometown show at Manchester’s Albert Hall.
