The Ghost Of Fudge Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 NEXT SHOW AT THE MOORINGS BAR =SAT 12th JULY 2008SAMURAI FURY + RUE THE DAY + THE DIRTY ANGELS + RED MONGOOSEMySpace.com - Samurai Fury - Aberdeen, UK - Rock / Metal / Punk - www.myspace.com/samuraifury"Samurai Fury are a band from Aberdeen Scotland specialising in fast, dirty, shred Rock'n'Roll. Formed in 2004, the band have played an impressive number of blistering shows throughout north Scotland as well as supporting bands such as Electric Eel Shock, The Zico Chain and The Black Velvets. With a hyperactive stage presence and a screaming, crushing, rock/metal fusion sound, they always serve up an excellent show of mojo driven, crotch fuelled fun!"MySpace.com - Rue The Day - UK - Metal / Rock - www.myspace.com/ruethedayrock "Early 2008 and Rue The Day are immersing themselves into a burgeoning metal scene; leading the charge of fresh British thrash talent. Unleashing their debut album on Casket Records and selling out online within the first day of release alongside glowing press coverage, a September UK tour and big budget film soundtrack beckon. Recently back from a successful tour of Eastern Europe, concluding in a headline slot at the Party in the Prague Festival, Rue The Day’s music has featured on MTV 2's Headbangers Ball, a ‘history of thrash’ Big Cheese covermount CD and a number of extreme sports films - while the band themselves have ripped apart a string of high-profile venues.""A strong sign that U.K metal isnt dead" 5/5 - Big Cheese Magazine "Blistering metal-core. They've sure got some groove, as well as bags of ability" - Rock Sound Magazine "Fiery traditional metal from promising young Midlands-based quintet characterised by twin lead guitar exchanges and battering rythms." - Metal Hammer "If you believe that stage diving should be an Olympic sport, in the power of the mosh and that circle pits should always run counter-clockwise, then you need to listen to this record" - Mass Movement "With bands like Rue The Day forming the backbone of the UK assault, things can only get better. They've managed to forge their own identity, that most elusive of thrash trophies" - Subba Cultcha MySpace.com - Dirty Angels - Dumfries, UK - Glam / Rock / Punk - www.myspace.com/thedirtyangelsrock "Debauchery, Excess, Blood, Sweat and Alcohol: Dirty Angels were formed out of the extreme lack of all of these words from modern day Rock 'n' Roll. Pissed off at the small minded-ness of their home-town Dirty Angels came together. Formed in '06, the boys killer brand of Rock n' Roll quickly landed them a deal with US based Glass Manacle Records. Dirty Angels hit the live music scene like an out of control runaway train and played to capacity audiences in the UK's premier live music clubs. Dirty Angels are poised to become the next 'big thing' in modern Hard Rock, and will challenge any doubters who say otherwise."MySpace.com - Evil Demon Theory - Aberdeen, UK - Rock / Progressive / Classic Rock - www.myspace.com/evildemontheory"Four like minded creatures with an appreciation of good music, and a desire to write their own. Each member brings something unique to this project, which places importance on meaningful lyrics, groovy riffs, wailing solos, fat bass and some angry drumming. Music with soul and balls."
