Kartta is a band. And they are obsessed with: volume, rhythm, atmosphere, and melody. They’re influenced by Explosions In The Sky, ... Trail Of Dead, Husker Du, The Cure, Talking Heads, Joy Division, Mogwai, Velvet Underground, My Bloody Valentine, Deerhoof, Uncle John & Whitelock, and a whole host of others. They write a lot of songs about books, I seem to recall. “Their set is packed with little spine tingling moments of beautiful melody, packed tight against big, hard edged soundscapes. Like the very best of bands such as Sonic Youth and Mogwai, they etch out little moments of heart-swelling beauty from tough, rapturous noise that can make you melt with joy. Just when you think that the song has run its course, the band, perfectly in tune with each other, look round and then unleash another supernova-like sound that grabs the attention of every punter in the pub.” - a live review of Corleone. Cuddly Shark are as original as they come! They play hard! they play loud! They do power chords everywhere (so not really that original) and most the time they play bad! They hail from the Northeast of Scotland, but are now based in Glasgow. They play songs that are fun to them. Covered in influences, but you'll know which ones when you hear the songs. Formed from the ashes of lost hopes and broken dreams by a collection of overeducated and underemployed misanthropes and malcontents, No Pasaran want to be remembered. |

For anyone who is interested: this gig will be drummer Martin's last ever Kartta gig. Therefore, if you want to catch us before we become eternally drummerless, you better head on down. And buy Martin lots of drinks so he gets so inebriated that we can make him change his mind.
