Noiserv are to visit the UK for the first time beginning next week, with a mini tour taking in cities in Scotland and England, including a gig on the 13th of November at The Angel, in London.

Noiserv's debut album One Hundred Miles From Thoughtlessness (Merzbau) was released this past October. Noiserv is David Santos, who creates melodic melancholia with vocal, electronics and a host of effects. His music runs the gamut from singer-songwriter contemplations to Depeche Mode electronica-fests. You can get the full equipment list and a bit more biography on the MySpace.

They have quite a lovely official website published in both English and Portuguese, composed of sweet line drawings and some clever interactive soundscapes. Have a look here.
