NOVEMBER 26th @ THE MATRIX CLUB, GRIMSBY!!
SURROUNDED www.myspace.com/surrounded
"Masters of the celestial epic, SURROUNDED creates atmospheres of fragile beauty by blending surrealist lyrics, mournful melodies, orchestral flourishes and spacey experimentalism with a subtle, cinematic sway from lo-fi to hi-fi. Encompassing a strangely beautiful rainbow of sound and emotion that twinkles beneath layers of cello, mellotron, radio chatter and synthesizers, their debut SAFETY IN NUMBERS envelops the listener with an entrancing collection of songs that range from the innocent to the insane, the troubled to the tender, the sweet to the sad."
These guys are awesome and on Deep Elm Recs. Imagine a cross between everything lovely in Grandaddy, The Flaming Lips, Mew and Sigur Ros.
DARTZ! www.myspace.com/darts

MIXTAPE SWAP-BOX
The idea here is that we give you a theme and you make a mixtape to that theme. Decorate it how you like, bring it to the show and swap it with another one in the box. Its a nice little way to meet new people and hear new music.
The theme is going to be
"memories" make of it what you will... maybe write why you picked the songs down too... just be sure to write your name and a way to contact you (e-mail is the best idea) on the tape/box/inlay. (you can use CDs if you must... tapes are just nicer!)
