having been on Grizzly Twister's tail for about a year now, they finally make it to Aberdeen...and it just so happens it falls on my birthday (well the day before, but close enough to use it as an excuse!) this will be a belter of a gig...WHAT A LINE UP
THE GRIZZLY TWISTER (sweden)
Spoken of as a total experience, The Grizzly Twister has been compared with bands reaching over a broad spectrum, something like a mixture of
The Dillingers Escape Plan, Refused, Lack, JR Ewing and even the Blood Brothers, with some journalists even comparing them to something as abstract as Junior Senior. Musically located somewhere in-between disco and the soundtrack to the end of the world, they have often been described by critics as
"twisted blip-blip-hardcore", emotionally schizophrenic in everyway; optimistically destructive yet happily pitch-dark www.myspace.com/thegrizzlytwister www.grizzlytwister.tk
THE PLAGUE SERMON (midmarch records)
From Brighton, the Plague Sermon destroy with their brutality while at the same time enchant with their melody, soundscapes merge with screamo; in the vein of
city of catapillar, neil perry and at times botch and mastadon, the Plague Sermon writes music not songs, switching time signatures instead of creating hooks, chorus’s’ will not be tolerated. It’s time to sit down and concentrate, with a bottle of bourbon, and drink yourself into noise enhanced stupor.they are out for blood.

GRIZZLY TWISTER/THE PLAGUE SERMON have just released a split 7" released through Midmarch Records/My Favourite Toy Records, limited to 300 copies, on sexy white vinyl...you *may* be able to buy one at the show, providing they havent sold out by the time they get to aberdeen!
TAKE A WORM FOR A WALK WEEK
most of you will know this lot by now, Arkade faves TAWFAWW sounds and feels a lot like getting a particularly brutal beating from four slightly disturbed young men with big sticks borrowed from
DAUGHTERS, nails from THE LOCUST and shards of glass from BOTCH. featuring members of Torqamada, Julia Thirteen, Loss Leader & ex Fighting Red Adair, they have just completed their first album, 'Notes From A Dirty Old Man', 13 brutal songs, condensed into a 14 minute beating...mixed and mastered by Iain Cook of Aereogramme.
