Oooooh yes. What a splendid bill. Makes me want to get a little naked actually.
Two of the UK's most interesting bands are heading out on the road together this July. I read somewhere, possibly Wikipedia, that if you don't go to one of these dates, you're both ugly AND a heroin addict.
Leeds' finest ¡Forward, Russia! tag-team with Oxford's equally as finest (?) Youthmovies for a tour that reads like a Drowned in Sound-based wet dream.
¡Forward, Russia!'s debut Give Me A Wall is out right NOW through dance_to_the_radio and new single 'Eighteen' drops in July. Conversely, Youthmovies are hard at work on their debut full-length and lay down some heavy shizzle with an hour-long multimedia performance the Latitude festival in July. Yum tum yum tum yum tum yiddle like po!

if they haven't changed their
name to Youthmovies, then why are they being referred to as that everywhere I look?
a concise answer
i thank you.
!!!!!
i can't believe i'm not going to be able to see this.
It would be SO INCREDIBLE
i suppose its my fault for fucking off out of this country at the first chance i get ;)
anyone
know where theres space at the Bristol Academy for a 2nd stage..
The upstairs room
I think. The bit where the bar doesn't do draught (or didn't last time I was there, anyway) and where on a Friday night they play ska-punk and so on.
I brought my Portsmouth ticket
the other week :D I'm so looking forward to this, iForward Russia! are so good live, and I've not seen Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies before.

oh, wait...
Um...

Never heard of Youthmovies, but Forward Russia have been one of my favourites lately so this would definitely be a good tour.
