Picastro care, metal or not: tour forthcoming
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver November 7th, 2005
Avant-folkies Picastro follow the similarly musically inclined Akron/Family to the UK this month, even appearing on the same bill as the Young God Records outfit a couple of times.

Picastro's Metal Cares (released on Monotreme in the UK and Polyvinyl in the States) is among the most hauntingly melancholy releases your ears will hear all year, but if you're yet to be swung by its charms then check the band out first:

November
13th Birmingham Flapper & Firkin (with Dwayne Sodahberk)
14th London Betsey Trotwood (with Dwayne Sodahberk)
15th London 93 Feet East (with Akron/Family)
16th Manchester Scubar Basement (with Dwayne Sodahberk)
17th Bristol Cube Cinema (with Akron/Family)
18th Oxford Wheatsheaf (with Dwayne Sodahberk)
19th Brighton The Freebutt (with The Chap and Dwayne Sodahberk)
