THE HOPE
www.myspace.com/thehope
"“….When I think about bands most likely to inject some passion, some belief, some commitment and some bollocks back into the local music scene, The Hope are always near the top of my list. Coming on live in leaps and bounds, they are now an awe inspiring stage presence – a lean, mean onslaught of noise, energy, melody and attitude….” - R*E*P*E*A*T
TEN CITY NATION
www.myspace.com/tencitynation
"Exhibition Time Again pits murderous melodies against some fabulous harmonies... a bruising slab of impossible-to-ignore rock that can’t fail to inspire a whole new generation of wannabes to pick up a guitar and play it to death" - Screaming Tarts (single review, 'Exhibition Time Again)
"Ten City Nation manage to create a mood of their own, which is uncommon enough... Their moth-eaten darkness, their quest for disharmony, are evidence not only of their deep musical culture, but also of their radical talent." - This Is Fake DIY
NEBRASKA

"A stunning debut... surely destined for greatness" - Artrocker (album review, 'The Path To The Silent Country')
"...absolute stone-cold classic, must-have single of 2008" - Rocklouder (single review, 'The Great Divide')
THEE VICARS
www.myspace.com/theevicarsuk
"Fresh from being crowned Best Punk Band at the 2008 Indy Awards, Thee Vicars have a foolproof plan for World domination: first, take the raw essence of every fantastically deranged, bug-eyed, snarling garage band from the Sonics to the Stooges to Mudhoney; then, ferment the essence in the pressure-cooker boredom of small town, rural Suffolk for 16-18 years; finally, uncork and behold the fermented, seething essence manifest as 4 fantastically deranged, bug-eyed, snarling lunatics, spitting out pitch-perfect punk TUNES (and by punk I mean KICK OUT THE JAMS, MOTHERF*CKER!), snapping guitars like pencils, drumskins like rice paper and metal microphone stands like, er... rusks? with such zeal and glee that no band in their right mind would even consider trying to follow them. Currently perpetually on tour upstaging the likes of Wire, Levellers and Die! Die! Die! and recently signed to Dirty Water Records, Thee Vicars need to be seen to be believed. Catch them now, before it costs you a fortune." - R*E*P*E*A*T
DEXY
www.myspace.com/dexyspace
"Finally: a British singer-songwriter you don’t need to be ashamed about" - Sprawled Magazine
"Initially appears like some frail and kooky yet homely softly strummed gem before magnificently morphing into a warming haze of beautifully encoded bubblegum pop that finds itself all at once bestriding all routes via the west coast psyche pop, 50’s drive in teen movies and 70’s glam...a rare touching beauty of some measure" - Losing Today
plus special guest DJs Knights Of Neu!
