Its on the 24th Nov at the Islington Mill, tickets are £7 in adv from http://www.wegottickets.com/event/96981.

Cave
Chicago-based psychedelic/Krautrock enthusiasts Cave craft tight, funky, free-form slabs of groove-heavy, instrumental space rock that have earned the group comparisons to everyone from Can to Stereolab to Funkadelic. Formed in 2006, Cave grew out of the ashes of a handful of local Chicago bands, as well as Missouri-based Warhammer 48K. Like driving a train full speed off a cliff only to discover that the train can fly and you´ll live forever if you stay inside.

Mugstar
Mugstar are the sound of 10,000 suns exploding, pulsing and repetitive beauty, sounding like a sonic mantra. Mugstar set sail for the sun in 2002 and have completed numerous voyages with the likes of Mogwai, melt banana, Oneida, Acid Mothers Temple and Part Chimp. The band recorded one of the last PEEL SESSIONS for the late great John Peel.

Prayer Rug
Like a thick rasberry jam (with bits) dribbling over minimal and light cake. The rush kicks in with the yellow n blue sunrise, totally delicious, moreish, hypnotic and spacey. Lovely.
