About Bad Fractals

Hello and welcome to our big and bad fractal family!

In 2012 Bad Fractals were born, kicking and screaming out of a squat in north London. At a time when many were touting the end of the world, Bang Crosby and Astral Oz sought to soundtrack it with chaotic joy.  9 years, and multiple shows including Glastonbury, Boomtown, circuses, the back of a truck at protests and a squatted strip club later, we are still kicking and screaming! We have expanded our ranks to include the force of nature that is Fred Astray, (Tribazik/Lunar and the Deception) the enigmatic ninja of bass that is Fred Stitz, (Gypsydelica/Razorlight) and the wizard of synths that is Dave Stitch (Hedfuk/TR33N).  We also have been collaborating with members of Alabama 3 “OMG It’s the church!” and more…

Recently the end times are being declared again, as the plague has hit planet world… For Bad Fractals and for many others, we have been left without the mechanisms to continue bring music and shows to the masses. Without the ability to tour, no money from streaming and an extremely unhelpful government, we have been left in limbo.

In 2019 we teamed up with legendary producer YOUTH (Paul McCartney/killing Joke/The Verve/Pink Floyd/The Orb…) to produce our debut album, “Ultra Violent Love Songs.” By February 2020 we were nearing completion until Covid 19 hit, meaning the project is remaining under lock and key until we can finish paying the mixing and mastering costs. ¾ of the band temporarily retrained as postmen, as it ironically was the only way we can deliver our album! However, it was short lived, although we have become true “Post-Punks” we are still financially way off being able to finish and release what we think is an incredible record.

Which is why would like to ask you to join us on this journey! We would like to invite you to join the Fractal Family, and have some truly beautiful rewards for you… We have a fantastic array of merchandise and vinyl to buy or preorder now, and one of a kind, unique experiences to offer!

Thank you for joining us on our journey, your support means everything x
