PRESS/LUCY LING
THE GERMAN AVANT-rock scene of the 1970s continues to be a major inspiration, with the latest band to channel the sound and spirit of krautrock being Nottingham-based Attraktors. Initially the solo project of Six By Seven keyboardist James Flower (JFlower), Attraktors became a trio with the addition of bassist John ‘Jhon’ Thompson and drummer Antony Hodgkinson (Antronhy), whose varied musical backgrounds include Nectarine No 9, Bivouac, Julian Cope and The Selector. The band have now released their self-titled debut album, which has been gradually pieced together over the past few years.
