FLOOD Features Fig

“Robin Peringer and Gilden Tunador were members of early-aughts slowcore favs Carissa’s Wierd... before setting off on their own to record their self-titled debut under the new moniker Figg,” writes FLOOD in its premiere of the new video from the band, “Black Tar Of Camden Yards.” According to FLOOD, “Though Peringer’s resume also includes work with Modest Mouse, 764-HERO, and the Doug Martsch–fronted Treepeople, Figg sounds most closely tied to the ramshackle, string-heavy chamber pop of Carissa.”

Crafted during the COVID crisis, the new video was “cobbled together by both members from their respective quaratnines, with additional assistance from editor Len Burge and YouTuber Jacob the Carpetbagger.” Enjoy it here, and read more about the making of it via FLOOD.
