This Saturday (February 9) sees the latest, and possibly final, chapter in DrownedinSound's Nottingham club night venture. After two long years the Nottingham DiS team has decided to take a temporary hiatus but as a parting gesture we're proud to announce possibly our best line-up yet.
Kicking off at 8pm, taking to the stage at the city's Junktion 7 venue we have...
Her Name Is Calla
"Musically you could say they are somewhere between the vast historical landscapes of iLiKETRAiNS and the organic simplicity of Shady Bard, yet all the time there is an overtly sinister edge that suggests something life-changing (or should that be ending?) is about to take control at any second" (DiS)
Exit Calm
"This can be summarised as neither shoegaze nor post-rock; this is music crafted by angels with the souls of devils trying to break free of the purgatory of modern life" (DiS)
Vessels (pictured)
"One of the most unique bands in the country today... both haunting and mesmerising in equal measures, Vessels are a frightening proposition who hold no fear as to the endless possibilities that await them" (DiS)
Mourning Becomes Electra
"Glistening guitars twinkle and tumble dreamily out of the speakers and then launch towards the heavens" (www.hearthefuture.org.uk)
As if that little lot wasn't mouth-watering enough, there will also be DJ sets across both floors of the venue from the likes of Nottingham shoegaze alchemists Mint Ive, the amazing Das Disko and, just confirmed, Leeds’ very own historical post-rockers iLiKETRAiNS. Sprinkled between will be sets by DiS DJs (myself and Jordan) and several other as-yet-to-be confirmed guests.
Advance tickets are available from Selectadisc or We Got Tickets.Com at £4 each.
There will also be a limited number on the door at £6 each (£5 with an NUS card).
Alternatively, if you add yourself to the Nottingham Drowned In Sound MySpace site there is a special cheap list available there, too.
See you all on Saturday!

Yep
Just PM me the bumpf and I'll put it on their profile.
Bring the scouse muppet
We can sing songs about his beloved Liverpool to him in a Trentside stylee
It will be stupid
& slightly biased.
.
my note makes no sense
I will mention the Dad Diskettes
which I know Dom, you were most suprised by at Das Chrimo. Admit it!!!
THATS DAS DISKETTES
not dad diskettes however, carpet, could you get your Dad to Dj with Whit's dad?
I voted Ten
because I want a quiet life?!
i did hear
Dom and Jordan were planning pyrotechnics and big baloon style balls to go through the crowd in the style of muse.
I'm going to this.
I don't know how I'm going to afford it but I'm going to this!
do it!
.
what kind of music will iLiKETRAiNS play?
whatever it is, I bet you can't dance to it
We are
with 20 foot high cardboard effiges of Steven Gerrard.
Mr Vain by Culture Beat
I hope. Otherwise I'll have to play it.
I have work at 8am on Sunday.
NOT cool.
I'm playing football on Sunday
We will probably lose as all of our team will be present at this but it will be worth it!
Football>>>>>>>>>>>8 hour shift at co-op.
I think there may be tears.
Tears and laughter at our hapless goalkeeper
perhaps (sorry Gareth if you're reading this)
Tears at the general shitness of my job.
I only have one week left though!

breaking news

And you and Neil Pick

This was an amazing
night even if I do say so myself! Cheers to everyone who came down, all the bands and DJs. If its to be our last one we certainly went out in style!
