PARTY GATOR PURGATORY

Fluorescent Pink & Green Vinyl. Temps is a 40-strong international music collective, consisting of artists across multiple genres, fronted by a cartoon alligator. Featuring such geniuses as Quelle Chris, John Dieterich, Joana Gomila, Laia Vallès and Seb Rochford, Temps' ten-track debut PARTY GATOR PURGATORY was produced, curated and devised by UK stand-up comedian James Acaster. This mind-bending opus rose from the ashes of a mockumentary aborted due to lockdown. He spent the next two years sending tracks back and forth, between himself and his heroes, as they gradually discovered an album together. Genres were disregarded in favour of tightly-packed experimentalism. Everyone was given free reign to do as they pleased then Acaster would cherry pick his favourite bits, the methodic touchstone being "a DIY Gorillaz or a homemade My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". Vast in scope and scale, and fizzing with an experimental energy, the trippy PARTY GATOR PURGATORY manages to blend a host of ideas, guests and moods into an album that draws you into it's own unique world.
