THE XCERTS
www.myspace.com/thexcerts
The Xcerts are a double edged sword of ferocious guitar and dainty, poetic words - a distorted pop band who fuse the influences of fellow countrymen Idlewild and Biffy Clyro with the thoughtful approach to songwriting of old school ‘emo’ bands like Jimmy Eat World and Bright Eyes.
After a barrage of dates with Future of the left, Bat for Lashes, Biffy Clyro, Make Model, Cage the Elephant, Brakes, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly and Fighting with Wire and recent supports with Enter Shikari and Feeder, The Xcerts are gearing up to release their debut full length album recorded with producer Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers / Idlewild).
With support from Radio 1, XFM, MTV2, Rock Sound and Kerrang, and a work ethic of epic proportions with a live show to match, these are exciting times for the Brighton based trio.
“Nothing short of astonishing” – Kerrang!
“Ludicrously Punchy” – Steve Lamacq
“... they're definitely ones to watch” – Rock Sound
THE INDELICATES
www.myspace.com/theindelicates
The Indelicates are a five piece, piano and guitar-led pop/rock act from Sussex, UK. Taking their musical cues from folk and classical sources - as well as the broad spectrum of British indie rock – they write melodic, edgy and intellectually coherent songs that have been consistently well-received in the UK and abroad.
"Neo-Brecht/Weill theatricality? Check. Profane razor strop wit? Check. Irreverent misanthropy? Check. Scathing socio-cultural critiques? Check. Acid sweet indiepop songcraft? Check. Meet the fabulously unfashionable, unfashionably fabulous Indelicates." – ROLLING STONE
"...this is intelligent, poetic indie-rock. In other words, it bears no resemblance to The View, The Fratellis, or any other examples of that kind of nonsense" – ARTROCKER
"Stunning." – NME
ABOUT: BLANCK
www.myspace.com/aboutblanck
About: Blanck are a 6 person band. They like all kinds of music. This means sometimes they sound a bit strange. They seem to be making something we all agree on now. In their words: “We smoke on the mic like 'Smokin Joe' Frazier, the hell raiser, raisin' hell with the flavor. Just cos you got the bacon, the lettuce, the tomato... Don't mean we're gonna give you our toast! Watch out for 'Celine'.
"It's sort of Latino-indie-pop meets afro-beat with verve, swagger and bite. And reminds us mainly of Manu Chao. Which is a VERY good thing." – Odd Wednesdays
THE GOOD GODS!
www.myspace.com/thegoodgodsuk
The Good Gods! have six legs, twenty four fingers and three hearts. Direct and indirect descendants of the Angryband, The Good Gods! came into being in the summer of 08’ though remain hidden for some months, only leaving the safety of the rehearsal room to forage for food, record and play the occasional gig.
Their three hearts now beating in time to the rhythm of the inextricably talented Ed Seed, seem energized and improved. This new energy has acted as a spark of life which is given mass and texture by the nimble fingered David Hardy, on his ever evolving, uplifting yet grounding bass guitar. Leaving the mouth and mind of the beast to be supplied by the bespectacled Tom Hatred, who has been bubbling under the surface of the indie scene for sometime being called both an “anti-folk hero” in Dazed and Confused as well as a “new-folk starlet” in the NME, though it is with The Good Gods! he truly finds his voice, both literally and metaphorically.
