Skiving is an art rock five-piece from London. Their music veers from post rock to delicate electronica to kraut riffs. The band has developed a distinct aesthetic performing in "schlubby middle-management attire," turning corporate mundanity into sharp social commentary.

They are touring the UK in support of their debut album The Family Computer.

“One of London’s most dynamic and bracing exports”.  (A. L. Noonan, Hard of Hearing magazine).

“Skiving are making songs for anyone who’s ever daydreamed about clocking in to a job they hate. Equal parts playful and chaotic, their music balances sugar-rush fun with sharp-eyed social commentary, collapsing into odd time signatures just when you think you’ve got it figured out. With their debut album The Family Computer, the band talk fantasy, failure, DIY community spirit, and why novelty instruments sometimes beat guitars.” (Still Listening Magazine)

 “Ich Bin Ein Beginner”, is a “sharply-pointed post punk offering with some smart artful guitar work and observational lyricism. There’s a creative force about it that is equally as playful as it is serious. Carrying the torch of Squid, Shame and even Art Brut, it’s a creative juggernaut that zigs when you expect it to zag and leaves you constantly surprised.”  (weallwantsomeone.org)
