  • The Gaslamp Killer will release his debut album on Brainfeeder this fall. "The Gaslamp Killer is raw," wrote RA's Jeff Weiss when he interviewed him in 2010. That much is obvious from a casual glance at the tracklist for Breakthrough, which contains titles like "Fuck," "Meat Guilt" and "Peasants, Cripples & Retards." As co-founder of Los Angeles' famed Low End Theory club night, Gaslamp has championed an eclectic sound which brings together unlikely genres into his energetic live show and recordings for Brainfeeder. For his first full-length, he invites a host of guests associated with the club night and label to contribute: Gonjasufi, Daedelus, Shigeto and more all feature throughout. Tracklist 01. Breakthrough Intro 02. Veins (with Gonjasufi) 03. Holy Mt Washington (with Computer Jay) 04. Father 05. Critic (with Mophono) 06. Dead Vets (with Adrian Younge & MRR) 07.
