First Terrace Records

We are thrilled to announce SPECIMENS fourth album ‘POWER, PAIN, PRIVILEGE’, out on April 21st on First Terrace Records.

Pre-order now : https://specimensmusic.bandcamp.com/album/power-pain-privilege

‘POWER, PAIN, PRIVILEGE’ is SPECIMENS’s most personal work to date - an abstract sonic exploration of biracial identity, in its historicity as well as through the lens of Ives’ own personal experience of being British-Jamaican. The album is a departure from his largely ambient work and explores haunted and twisted dancehall rhythms, industrial drones, and spoken word pieces that track a course through painful incidents of imposter syndrome, shame, privilege & racism. 



The album is accompanied by a film directed by the photographer & director Lucie Rox which premiered last October at the Southbank Centre (who commissioned the piece) and is now set for its Paris debut this Saturday 5th of March at 3537.org. 



SPECIMENS will be live scoring the piece for the shows and Kleopatra Divine will be providing tunes in between the two screenings. A few exclusive advanced copy of the LP will be available to purchase on the night. Make sure to not miss it if you’re in town!

Film showing at 7pm and 9pm (20min).
Basement 2.
Free Entry.
