Phil Elverum of celebrated US cult act The Microphones plays London’s Scala tonight under the guise of Mount Eerie. Formerly a side project, this incarnation has become his main focus following the release of their acclaimed black-metal influenced album “Wind’s Poem” in 2009. This headline show at the Scala is the first chance UK audiences will get to hear the new set played in full; now touring as a full band, Mount Eerie have a show that allegedly involves an array of instruments, including gongs (yep, plural).

Support comes from No Kids and Bristol noise wunderkind Team Brick. Find out more or buy tickets on the website of the promoter – the ever-reliable Upset The Rhythm.
