In Pictures : Die!Die!Die!, The Wee Red Bar, Edinburgh

In Pictures : Die!Die!Die!, The Wee Red Bar, Edinburgh By Julia Stryj April 04, 2013 Seeing as we were on the ball enough to have a well handled camera with us on March 29 it's only fair that you get to see what you missed as Die!Die!Die! , United Fruit and Black International did their best to burst eardrums.

Die!Die!Die!, The Wee Red Bar, Edinburgh

Die!Die!Die!, The Wee Red Bar, Edinburgh By Kenny McMurtrie April 02, 2013 From Dunedin (NZ) to Dunedin (UK), as was, Die!Die!Die! hit town to promote new album Harmony & bring it home to me that now's maybe the time to invest in some earplugs for gigs. This was a damn loud show.   They perpetrate this sonic terrorism at breakneck speed, battering out such selections as 'Blinding' (from the Promises Promises album of 2007) with barely a gap for any light to get in between one song [...]

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 25th March 2013

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 25th March 2013  Yes that -> is a picture of Edinburgh in the warm sunshine. Yes, I am doing this just to irritate you. I didn't write this post last week, due to travelling back from Austin and so on, and unfortunately there happened to be loads on. This week, unfortunately, I am here and eager and ready... and there ain't all that much happening in Edinburgh that I can spot. Or that I personally happen to like the look of anyway.  Unless of course I've missed something, which usually happens at least once per week - corrections and frustrations in [...]

Gig Tomorrow, Plug Plug Plug

Gig Tomorrow, Plug Plug Plug We didn't have time to change the poster It's time, once again, to remind you that I'm doing stuff. Tomorrow (Saturday Jan 26th, in case you aren't reading this on the day it was written) is the third of the gigs put on by myself, Neil from Scottish Fiction and Lloyd from Peenko, with the witty and creative Scottish Fiction Presents: Aye Tunes Vs Peenko title. Suggestions for snappier promotional titles welcome. I suggested SPAFT, since it includes the initials from all our blogs. This suggestion was, correctly, dismissed. [...]

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 26th November 2012

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 26th November 2012  So, I'm back from Preston safe and sound, and looking forward to a wee jaunt to London for the Independent Label Market this weekend. It's all go, here at Toad Hall. Personally, I am not going to be in Edinburgh that much at all this week, and am popping through to Glasgow to see Sparrow and the Workshop at Nice 'n' Sleazy on Wednesday Also, as Christmas approaches, and everycunt (yes, including Song, by Toad Records ) seems to be arranging a Christmas party these days, I think calendars are about [...]

33.28 - Going Solo

33.28 - Going Solo Near the start of this self indulgent ramblefest that has been 33 I wrote about the Aye Tunes Vs Pennko gigs. Returning to that self indulgent theme, today I'm going to write a wee bit about the gigs I've put on by myself, which have imaginatively been titled Aye Tunes Presents. I'd have shortened that to ATP, but I'm pretty sure there'd be objections to that. #1 - 21st January 2011, Stereo Goodness, that feels so long again. I suppose it is quite a while ago, nearly a year and a [...]

Black International – In Debt: Zappelig Post-Punk mit hohem Spassfaktor

Black International – In Debt: Zappelig Post-Punk mit hohem Spassfaktor Neulich im Briefkasten. Ein Album, das Cover schwarz wie die Nacht. Black International ist das Duo Stwart Allan(Gesang & Gitarre) und Craig Peebles (Schlagzeug) aus Edinburgh, Schottland. Sie selbst sagen zu ihrer Musik: "Agressive, primitive, noisy, melodic, nervy, like dirty broken glass". Das Album heisst "In Debt",und in der Tat  ist das Debt vollgestopft mit druckvollen, bolzenden Indie-Rock, groartigen Post-Punk Attitden, derben Indie-Pop und einer Menge lrmenden, ohrwurmigen Post-Punk Bllern. Ziemlich beeindruckend, was die Herrschaften da abgeliefert haben. Dickes Bass-Geplucker Marke Achtziger, zappelig-zackig in der Rhytmus-Abteilung und die Gitarre ist schn  retro-zickig. Dazu passt dann der krakelnde, hingeschluderte [...]

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 18th July 2011

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 18th July 2011  Well after an extremely successful Ides of Toad on Saturday (a massive thanks to the excellent bands, and to the fucking loads of people who came along) I think this week I shall be putting my feet up and letting other people do the work for a bit. And what a fuck of a lot of work they've been doing, too, because this week is a bit mental in terms of excellent gigs at which to drink yourself into an early grave. So much for the pre-Festival wind-down I discussed last week. As well as having [...]
