After almost 2 years in the making, 'Alpha' has finally landed - a 13-track, all-killer-no-filler celebration of the inimitable sound of The Department. Inspired by classic electro and new wave, the band take us on an emotive ride through dramatic, instant, energetic electronic music with moving lyrics that explore life, love and existence.
Established in late 2012, The Department are a 2-piece synth band consisting of Rob Green on vocals and synth (London) and Magnus Lindström on synth (Gothenburg, Sweden).
They have played live at venues such as the legendary Romo Night club in Sweden, the 100 Club, Analogue Nights, The Hope & Anchor and The Macbeth, in London. They have played alongside bands such as Naked Lunch, The Woodentops, Ekkoes and Kids On Bridges, to fantastic reactions.
The band have enjoyed radio support from the likes of Radio 6 Music and The Johnny Normal Show and have been featured in many music publications in the UK, Europe and the US.
