System Exclusive come to Future Yard on Friday 22nd September, a Pasadena, California duo bearing an armful of mini synths and a pocketful of Tarantino-dusted riffs who make heart-throbbing, capital P pop punch with more than a hint of post-punk.
The group is made up of Ari Blaisdell (Lower Self, The Beat Offs) and Matt Jones (Male Gaze, Blasted Canyons) – Blaisdell’s vocals hearken back to open hearted 80s hitmakers unafraid to quaver in the name of love, buoyed by Jones’ laser-gridded synth concoctions and heavy hand on the ones and twos.
Their self-titled album was released in 2022 on Castle Face Records.
