Details on the dates are available here, or in the tour poster below. You can also check out the band's music by heading over to The Is... Read More/Discuss on Metal Underground.com

Nothing would be more creepy than running into a Doppelganger this Friday the 13th; not just a cute Facebook look-alike avatar but something more disturbing like a full on mirror image of one's self, Twilight Zone style (see episode " Mirror Image ". specifically). Downtown Toronto based The Isosceles Project have a special instrumental progressive track 'Doppelganger' that clocks in over thirteen minutes; yes 14 minutes plus of epic experimental slayage. You can find this track on their popular 'Oblivions Candle' debut EP release, available at the BandCamp link below. Their websites claim a 2011 [...]

If anyone in Edinburgh is at a loose end tonight, this is where you should be. At half eight in the Voodoo Rooms Limbo will be launching the first volume of a series of Limbo Live albums. Basically, they've taken the recordings from their weekly live shows and compiled a Best Of as something of a showcase, both of their work, and of all the new Scottish bands they've given a chance to over the course of the last year or so. Honestly, I have no idea how they do it. Three bands a week, every [...]

Christ almighty, it's fucking busy this week. So I guess I'll start by listing the three famousy gigs which I will not be attending, just to get them out of the way nice and early. Firstly, I will not be going to see Martha Wainright at the Picturehouse on Wednesday because, frankly, I find her rather annoying, despite expecting to like her music.

Well, we'll be back by the end of this week, back into a maelstrom of gigs. What the fuck am I going to do on Saturday? Go to see Johnny Flynn at Cabaret Voltaire? Sparrow & the Workshop at the Liquid Room? Or Eagleowl at the Scottish Scullery. I am going to be spread thinner than the veneer of desperately forced joy on a vegetarian's malnourished visage. I think I may even be doing a show for Fresh Air Radio that day, but I have no idea what about, as yet. So, what's happening on the busiest week of [...]
On a very thin week of gigs indeed, I was pointed in the direction of this one by Billy from Spins 'n' Needles, in his capacity as roving Drowned in Sound Anointed Bloodhound of Musical Excellence. Apart from a bit of cursory MySpacery beforehand I had precisely no knowledge of Isosceles before this [...]

WELCOME TO THE LOGGINSPHERE, FOOLISH HYPE MACHINERS Dinosaur, "Kiss Me Again" Dinosaur, "Kiss Me Again" (version) WARNING: IN BIG-PERSON 320K But seriously, folks: out of every word that I've ever written in the three-ish years I've been doing this stupid thing, the only ones I still consistently get specific mail about are the ones I used right cheer the first time I wrote up "Kiss Me Again". Naturally, most of the mail comes down [...]
