Bison is a label set up by Abby Thomas, digital archivist at Cafe OTO and audio engineer at the British Library. The label explores experimental song, off-pop, lyrics and language and the bleed between visual art and music. The first release is the debut LP from Still House Plants. Combining visual strategies, free improvisation, UK garage and punk, Still House Plants build melodic hierarchies scaffolded around ambiguities and intimacy. Fresh from being selected for the Cafe OTO x Jerwood Foundation Artistic Development fund, and following
two sold out tapes on Glasgow label GLARC, the trio's debut LP 'Long Play' collects the group's raw guitar-drum-vocal palette and stretches it to include violin, piano and intimate
home recording. Ranging from seconds-long to seven-minute-somethings, the album coagulates to form a heady meld of rudimentary phrases, kinetic repetition and malleable
samples. Experimental songwriting is rarely so forthcoming, emotive, or approachable.
