Wreck 4.

>>>Nine Days To No-one
Rising stars of the Engineer label, having just received rave reviews in all the rock rags. Monolithic metal/hardcore which sometimes recalls Neurosis and Botch, but with fresh-sounding, varied textures and a malevolence all of its own.

>>>Meet me in St Louis
Abrasive, relentlessly unpredictable, time sig-murdering rock with impassioned, raw vocals and bewildering arrangements.

Listening to this now, cheers for the tip, sounds intriguing. Yr description made me think a little bit of the late & truly great Victims Family, but that's another story.

Anyone heard The Evens, Ian McKay's (of Minor Threat/Fugazi fame) new group? They're on tour here atm and I'd be keen to see 'em if they're any cop.

 

[Abjekt]

*jealous*

Seriously, I'm so lucky to not have to pay. I'd see like, 1 or 2 of them if I had to shell out the moolah, especially at the Jazz Cafe.

Are you not able to get to any of them? [This is where you say you're from Australia or something].

Yep, I've got all those flagged up too except Dead Prez, how did I miss that?? Cheers for the heads up.

Out of the others, Kool Keith is looking the best. Did you see Aceylone by any chance?

There is a thread about them here. I saw them a couple of days ago, best gig I've been to for some time.

 

[Leica]

the Dresden Dolls - in May

Didn't see Acey, I have been absolutely shattered lately and I couldn't face another late night. Plus I think Magnificent City is, on the whole, shit.

 

[Pieface]

the Dresden Dolls - in May

Where's that then? I'd like to see them - missed them at Glastonbury.

 

[twistedAM]

I need to see We Are Scientists; think it's Good Friday at the Academy

 

[milesy]

i was gonna be going to see sugababes next month but i sold my tickets to a girl at work cos mutya left.

 

[Pieface]

Did you really, milesy? Was she the only thing you liked about them?

 

[Leica]

Where's that then? I'd like to see them - missed them at Glastonbury.

The Manchester Academy on the 6th. I'm sure they will play in London too though.

 

[milesy]

Did you really, milesy? Was she the only thing you liked about them?

i did, really.

it's just not the same without her. i feel swizzed. she was my favourite, her voice was my favourite, i don't like what i've heard of the new one's voice.

 

[Tank Girl]

hurray, no having to go to see the sugababes to keep milesy sweet

one of my upcoming joys is taking the teenager to see the kaiser chiefs.

I think I shall take up residence at the bar

 

[Pieface]

I haven't managed to hear it really - does she even get a solo in that Red Dress song? You're right though - Mutya was the only one with any character.

I bet she could cut her eye at a person real good.

 

[ddraig]

randall & brockie tonight in Cardiff

 

[Tank Girl]

on Red Dress, she's the one that sounds really nasal.
