Trip report: 65daysofstatic/Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies/Tired Irie/Palmstruck, Manchester Academy 2, Wednesday 7th November. The 5th time I've seen 65daysofstatic, and the move from the smaller room upstairs to the bigger room downstairs didn't bother them one bit. Palmstruck were pretty cool, their guitarist had a Steve Vai theme going on, and he had the skills to back it up. Definitely recommend you give it a go. http://www.palmstruck.com/ Tired Irie are a name I've heard for ages now. Bandied about with the current UK indie scene, and friends of everyone from YMSS to Edmund Fitzgerald (RIP) and countless others. This was the first time I'd ever seen them before, or heard them at all, and it was pretty good. They had a disco-math rock theme going on. Definitely one to look out for soon. http://www.myspace.com/tiredirie YMSS didn't disappoint, as usual. Andrew, their singer, recognised me from their gig a few weeks ago at the Night and Day cafe, and came over to say hello, which was nice of him. I finally got myself a tshirt after telling him I'd been putting it off for years. The best bit is that they are finally releasing an album early next year. About loving time... 65 were so awesome that my body aches from dancing so loving much. It was hands down the best gig of theirs I've been to, and I managed to get myself a set list to go with the drumstick I got from the last Manchester gig earlier this year. They turned some of the songs, Radio Protector in particular, into huge, hulking, drum and bass masterpieces. This culminated in members of all of the other bands from the evening getting on stage and dancing around. Then stage diving. Lots. Graham from YMSS nearly kicked me in the face. I did get some pictures, but they're pretty boring, so I won't bother. Tusk: You should check out some post-metal. Isis. Mouth of the Architect. Pelican. It sounds like you need some heavier stuff.

aoxomoxoa posted:Where can this be downloaded (legally)? I can't seem to find it anywhere, not even on archive.org, which has tons of GY!BE shows. I'd really love to hear it. Seconding this request. Incidentally, I have a folder called GY!BE live which is made up of songs from archive.org Basically what I did was go through each GY!BE song and download various versions from every gig on there, and find the best version of each, based on various criteria. Minimum audience noise, maximum volume, number of instruments able to be picked out when you listen, etc etc. Then I just encoded the FLACs to -V0 and bunged them on the old iPod for my journeys to work. It's a really awesome collection, I suggest you all get some live tracks. Sometimes they're different from the CDs, sometimes they're better

UK Folk: http://www.atpfestival.com/events/explosions/ I will be going. Who else will be going? Check out the lineup! It's awesome and it's nowhere NEAR complete. Some non-post rock bands on there too who I'm really looking forward to, namely Trail of Dead.

If so, you'll love Her Name Is Calla too. In fact, drat, I wanna go now! Liverpool date is closest for me. JaWs posted:Mogwai just canceled their remaining US/Canada tour dates due to Martin's pacemaker almost literally bursting from his chest.

I went to see From Monuments to Masses and These Monsters in Manchester on Monday night at the Night and Day Cafe. Also there were Freezing Fog who are pretty much a straight up metal band, but they were good also. Here are my three Flickr sets from the night: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24715866@N02/sets/72157608893911822/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/24715866@N02/sets/72157608889938005/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/24715866@N02/sets/72157608889125129/

On the 65dos messageboard there are links to a new session they did for BBC 6music (invited on by Johnny Marr). A couple of new songs, and Radio Protector. They sound pretty cool. Roll on April!

I'm in Blackpool so it's not exactly local, though. I do have a friend who has parents in Milnthorpe so maybe we can crash there if he comes with me. Also, that new Angel Eyes track is STUNNING.

Just recieved my pre-ordered copy of "Teach Children How To Think, Not What To Think" by Mt. (https://www.motivesounds.com) Yes, it's nothing new, but it sounds lovely. And there's vocals! For those of you who don't recognise the name, they used to be called Ctrl Alt Del a few years ago. Anyway yes, go and find it, it's a great little EP.

 New 65daysofstatic material played live http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=batch_download&batch_id=dVlwSXR3Mm01R05MWEE9PQ <- awesome beyond belief. The bit where it all goes quiet apart from the drums is where there was a power failure and the drums just kept on going in complete darkness. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=S8ZW44X2 <- Recording of entire Leeds Cockpit gig, not the best quality but still ok. I didn't get to go to this tour which annoyed the hell out of me but this stuff sounds absolutely fantastic. thehustler fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Apr 29, 2009 |

Speaking of EITS, anyone else going to the End Of The Road festival in the UK? They are the main headliners and I have a media pass once again so I'll be photoing it up in front of the barrier, maybe try and get to meet them. https://www.endoftheroadfestival.com Tickets are selling out fast, I think. But it's a great festival so you should definitely look into going.

Ooooh, this sounds ace! What date? I'm in Blackpool so it's not a major trip up there. Depends if I can persuade the girlfriend to come, she's not really a major fan of gigs really, especially if she doesn't like the band

I'll pass on the comments! They're headlining 93 feet east in London tonight if anyone's nearby and wants to go see a brilliant band.

I'm going to one of the two special 65daysofstatic shows next week (Manchester I'm going to, and there's a London show too). I expect it to be more of the same re the last tour, heavily stocked with previews of the new album, and some old favourites. And I can't wait. Anyone else going?

Starsnostars posted:I'm going to 65daysofstatic London show. All I'm hoping for is a longer set than when I last saw them when they stopped after 50 minutes due to a power cut. The recording of that is pretty cool, when Rob just carries on drumming into the darkness. Shame you guys got shafted though.

This will be my 8th time of seeing them. Good lord. Any good gigs up your way in the near future? I'm in Preston now so it's nicer for the train if I want to head up to Carlisle or Lancaster.
