[Dec 11, 2012] BIRDS IN ROW, PRELUDE TO THE HUNT AND MORE @ TUNNELS (Aberdeen)

[Guest E.C]

BLACK LAKE RECORDS PROUDLY PRESENTS:

BIRDS IN ROW (fra)

having recently released their second full-length 'You, Me & the Violence' through Deathwish Inc (USA), things are really hotting up for Laval, France's Birds in Row. Their first UK tour was back in 2011 with PUNCH and Loma Prieta, but this will be their first time in the Granite City. Blending balls-to-the-wall hardcore with some utterly gut-wrenchingly passionate moments, they're really a force to be reckoned with.

'Pilori' music video:

PRELUDE TO THE HUNT (abz)

aberdeen's very own sludge punks. first local show since Wake the Deen back in August - fast/heavy/loud on Bitter North Records.

[Guest E.C]

for some reason, the calendar wouldnt let me change it from lasting 6 hours to lasting 3 - it seems to be unendingly clunky...any chance of an update?!

[Soda Jerk]

YES!

ABSOLUTIST

their latest LP 'Ave' has recently been released through Swarm of Nails and Suburban Mayhem, and I cannot stop listening to it. crust/sludge with some sweet groove from Aberdeen/Ireland. reminds me of bands like Perth Express and Young and In The Way. crackin'.

[Teabags]

I'm gonna turn up with £6.66 in the smallest denominations I can get my hands on on the day.

[HateEvent]

Love the Birds In Row video at 0:10 where the drummer has no sticks haha!

[Guest E.C]

i'm surprised more people arent freaking out about this.

also, discussion point: is this the first time a DEATHWISH INC band has played aberdeen!?

[Woodsinho]

I am freaking out about this. It's a quiet freak out but let me assure you that it is very real. So real.

The Hope Conspiracy played Tunnels in 2005 or so, and Rise and Fall have been up at least twice.

Blacklisted played with Terror at Moshulu ages ago too.

[Alkaline]

Blacklisted played with Terror at Moshulu ages ago too.

That was a terrible gig filled with terrible people.

[iamnotananimal]

Did you promote this in the Slains toilets?

Consider me pwnd. This is ONE WEEK today!

[iamnotananimal]

Absolutist no longer playing apparently due to schedule changes.

[Soda Jerk]

SHITE. I still haven't seen them.

[Guest E.C]

Absolutist pulled out, but SUNSET SQUAD have replaced them. first aberdeen show for them since May 2011. GET EXCITED.

THIS IS TONIGHT

[Soda Jerk]

This was my favourite gig I've seen in Aberdeen since the Taint/Manatees show. It was the first time I've seen Prelude, and they were excellent. Scott's tone was monstrous.

I've seen Sunset Squad before but didn't remember them being that good. The guitar playing was superb. Great band.

Birds in Row were mint. It felt like it was over so quickly as they just hammered through all their songs without stopping, but they killed it. It's great to see a band play as hard as that. Serious tone too. Ricky into a Model T and a Plexi. Fuck sake.

And selling Deathwish LP's for a tenner? Great!

[Teabags]

Good gig was good.

[Jaaakkkeee]

Devastated I missed this.

[Moose]

Pretty sad I couldn't make it along, but I left a long winded apology with EC. Glad it went well.

[Monster Zero]

Hadn't heard Birds in Row before. Now a fan. Great stuff. Merch stand 'pay what you want' was a first for me. I gave a tenner per item. CD, vinyl and tee. Hope that seems fair.

Prelude are beasting live, hope their new recordings manage to capture that.

Was a bit undecided on other bands, especially the first one, not really a listener to that vein of punk anymore but it seemed a decent enough take on it.
