saturday 26th september w/ race horses
buffalo bar, windsor place, cardiff 7.30pm

will be fun! great little band.

worth all the running around and remonstrating with security!

billy childish & the MBEs, the mountain goats, low, steven adams, modern ovens, threatmantics, brakes, zombie zombie and dirty three were my musical highlights. top weekend.

he won't tour though, will he? he's supposedly afraid of being refused re-entry to the states as a foreign-born citizen with prior drug convictions.

Support in Cardiff from Spencer McGarry Season. New album track to download for free here...

it's at clwb ifor bach.

and a cardiff date has been added on december 14th too.

still, bristol roadtrip = good times

before planning the bristol trip - is there any likelihood (at the moment) of more venues being added to this?

VAGINOSAUR

really need to see them live.

once again, i'm sorry. what an embarrassing "turnout". still, it was great. hope they come back in some form.

Ace mathy two-piece, ex-Mountain Men Anonymous. Will be v good.

one of the year's best.

they were fucking brutal, really good.

silver jews are playing the EITS one, so not long to wait really...

Truckers of Husk.

Millions Of Brazilians is ace. What happened to them after that? Another winner I was tipped off to by the Shellac curated ATP.

A perfect example of how to do an ambitious second album properly. Tapes n Tapes, CYHSY, all the other indie water-treaders, please take note.

Awful cover though.

good maths there, sarcasto.

i wish dave 'one-trick' fridmann would stop producing dull albums by good bands.

First single "Work It Out"/"Ayn Rand Says" available from March 10th on Businessman Records... www.businessmanrecords.co.uk.

Link to buy will be up in the next few days. Launch gig in Dempseys opposite Cardiff Castle on Saturday 8th, supporting the Fall on the 9th... busy boys.

Cheers for the excellent write-up Alex.

"best debut album since..." no, not fucking definitely maybe.

another fine review.

Please let it be no coincidence. 25 minutes at Primavera was not enough.

can they let me know? ta. it's already sold out pretty much.

there's a great version of the breeders' 'divine hammer' hidden on it.

with a picture of leonard rossiter?

and it took me until they'd stopped playing in Cardiff to realise, something I regret hugely now. Great to see them getting a decent feature.

want to watch Dragnet now.

billy joel. surely.

los camp > mo-ho.

nice to see dom passantino on here, always enjoyed his writing on Stylus. more please.

the price: subject to inflation

BEIRUT ONSTAGE AT 1AM PLEASE

"really down today guys :( "

my thesaurus is letting me down.

yeah it will, but then so will 6 other nights! i was clinging on to the vague hope that no good bands whatsoever would play the friday, which was being a bit hopeful ;)

we should hopefully still get a good crowd in. we'll probably arrange the running order once some of the bigger gigs are announced!

argh argh argh

not fierce panda. that's right.

do parlophone have the rights to the captain stuff? or was that fierce panda?

bit revisionist, if the former.

way to break their current habit of only booking shit bands. that is really great news - i missed OR at ATP due to scheduling horror.

exciting!

nice to see you spamming somewhere else!

and i like it a LOT. 'flag day' is brilliant.
