Control Of The Going

An eclipse formed from surreal psychedelia with rock and roll overtones. Control of the Going began in Manchester in July 2015 to become one "of the best new bands in town". So far, they have featured as the Real Radio XS "Future Classic" band for July 2015, and have featured many times on Amazing Radio and world renowned KEXP. Their debut "She" is out now and available to buy exclusively through Wrong Way Records. "She" was also premiered exclusively on KEXP in October 2016. Control Of The Going have recently signed to Wrong Way Records and are currently working on their debut album, scheduled for release in September 2017. "the warmth starts to exude out even when the subject matter of the song is dark" "What's so great about them is that they so clearly fit like a hand in glove with so many other bands on the scene at the moment, yet there's something intrinsically unique about them, the way their three guitar and bass set-up combine and collide to create something thrilling and challenging to the listener" - Even the Stars "Fans of The Brian Jonestown Massacre should find much to enjoy with Manchester shoegaze reprobates Control Of The Going, whose waves of subtle shimmers evokes Anton Newcombe’s estimable band. Or for another comparison, maybe Control Of The Going are a baby version of Helicon, Glasgow’s 3D demons of space rock" - Colourhorizon
