The debut album from Tape Error, released on the 10th anniversary of the tragic passing of the band's brainchild, Chris Austin. Lo-fi and acoustic at heart, built up around the edges by vocal harmonies and drums, this much anticipated album finally sees the light of day and promises to be a fitting tribute to a musical genius.
Tape Error's debut EP, Perfect Conditions for a Cure, was released in 2013, but just as they were getting in their stride and gearing up for an album release, tragedy struck. Chris Austin passed away aged at the age of 38, just a day after discovering he had liver cancer. Chris's death sent shockwaves through the Medway music scene. His early career had seen him playing with local indie singers who hit the big time like Kid Harpoon and Lupen Crook. As the brainchild of Tape Error, Chris was on the cusp of receiving the widespread recognition that his talent so richly deserved.
In 2023 – the 10th anniversary of Chris's death – Tape Error's debut album will finally be released. Featuring previously unheard tracks it promises to be a fitting tribute for a true musical genius.
