Based in Toronto, Ten Kens were discovered by Fat Cat Records and became the first Canadian act ever signed to the famed UK indie label…the same label made famous for discovering and launching the careers of such international sensations as Sigur Ros, Animal Collective, and No Age.
After a successful UK winter tour supporting A Place To Bury Strangers, Ten Kens eagerly signed with famed Canadian label Last Gang Records (Metric, Chromeo, Death From Above 1979) and immediately headed into the studio.
Two years after their critically acclaimed debut of the same name, Ten Kens released their confidently titled follow-up ‘For Posterity’. As the title suggests, this release sees them looking to the future, and the band have pursued a distinct artistic vision that takes inspiration from a range of disparate genres and movements, from the meditative experimentation of Psychedelia to the immediacy of Hardcore, steering them towards a bold new sound that is truly unique. ‘For Posterity’ leaps forward, clubs like sharp-edged rusty metal rods and quickly changes its appearance soon as one assumes to have recognized a schematic outline in their work.
