San Francisco trio Lower Forty-Eight's previous album, 'Skin Failure' (2003), was hailed in the press as a powerful, dynamic and complex album that combined the best elements of hardcore, mathrock, punk and emo.

With their latest album, 'Apertures', the band have further solidified their identity, creating their most accomplished album to date. 'Apertures' is a personal and sometimes harrowing account of human conflict and moral struggle, set to music that is heavy and intense, but also beautiful and melodic; a skillful fusion of metal, hardcore and indie-rock that highlights the band's superb grasp of composition and structure. The culmination of two years of intensive writing and touring, 'Apertures' is a knife-edged album that is epic in its scale and cinematic in its passion.

Lower Forty-Eight] combine precise dynamic, passionate song passages with incredibly powerful exploding guitar parts and perceptive vocals. Tempo changes, breaks and complex rhythms... one can never anticipate exactly what to expect next. GO AND GET IT!!!

Persistent listening is rewarded abundantly with dynamics, complex rhythms and maniacal vocals breaking loose (think Henry Rollins). Sometimes melodic, sometimes deliberately disharmonious. This album is like whiskey, once you develop a taste for it, you really appreciate it.

support from dundee's PERINEUM (Pet Piranha Records) think Kyuss/Melvins/Botch and local industrial/electro/rock trio DEAR JOHN

They got a well good review in Kerrang! this week. Their album got 4/5. Choice quote: "It's hard to see how anyone interested in punk rock couldn't be swayed by this glorious clatter." Nice. And I can't go. Boo! You Arkade Projects types should check out Parts And Labour. And then book them. Husker Du meets Lightening Bolt said Kerrang. And for once they were right! :up: It's good shit.

What time will Lower Forty-eight be on' date=' as I suspect I might be able to catch the football first.. ?[/quote']

I was thinking the same thing, but i'll watch only enough of the fitba, to still make it down to see all of Perineum's set too.

Where were you guys thinking of watching the game?

Will there be birthday bumps :up: ?
