Doing things in places // 2012 Dates
Hi,
We’ve just updated our shows section with 5 upcoming dates.
It’s nearly January 2012 so we’re excited about playing in Los Angeles - especially playing a few dates with White Murder.
So far we have no transport and no places to stay. On the off chance someone reads this and can help then you’re amazing and we’ll buy you something nice like a chili or...

Crow Versus Crow is an online radio show that plays a lot of stuff we like. They played us which was nice of them. And we segued nicely in to ‘New Brigade’ by Iceage, which is even nicer.

Sergio - a sample from our new EP
We just got our mixes back from the guys at Tye Die Tapes who are some of the best people we’ve met yet while doing this whole charade of a band.
Here’s a sample of the end of one of the tunes called “Sergio”. It’ll be out at some point.

They’re in Bhurgeist too. Bhurgeist do a Bikini Kill cover. Need I say more?

Show Diary - poor opinions of poor performances
We’ve started keeping a record of every show we’ve every played, whether we got paid, whether there was free drink and our general feelings on the night.
This isn’t meant as a critique of anything, just a record for ourselves and for anyone that is interested.
There may be huge inaccuracies but we’ve tried to be as honest as we can. Any mistakes are due to poor memory...

The American Dream // No Deviant Desires
If you’re like us and strapped to a computer five days a week, typing stuff you don’t really care about, things like this really resonate.
I am married and I live in the suburbs.
My street looks like every street you have seen in every commercial since 1957. Ever since I first came here, I couldn’t think of living anywhere else.
I have two children – both bright – a girl...

Crossing the pond with Fuzzy Logic
Megan at the rather amazing Fuzzy Logic based in Washington D.C. gave us a mention yesterday.
She compares us to Guided by Voices, which rules, and York Minster, which rules too but is certainly the strangest thing that’s been said about us.
Check out what else she had to say about other shit here.
THANKS MEGAN

Two live reviews...
There’s reviews online from the last two nights of shows.
Numero UNO: One&Other reviewed the Wrong Side of the River show where we supported The Babies in a basement. It was some of the most fun we’ve ever had. The Babies killed it.
“High energy electric performance sent a buzz through the room”

Soundsphere Magazine Reviews Hair Play 4/5
The strident supporters of the North’s music scene and producers of a rather splendid publication, Soundsphere Magazine have just reviewed our EP Hair Play.
They gave us 4/5 - check out the review here:
(The bit that made me laugh the most was “the interplay between Meager’s terse, contemptuous lead vocal and Bowden’s frenetic yelps”)
