'Edinburgh finally gets with the programme (6 Dec) when Def-Con One visit Bannerman's, featuring ex-members of the surely-infamous Venom. They're also ably supported on this occasion by native two-piece Bronto Skylift, plying their cantankerous noise with increasingly assured confidence.'

'just two chaps making an awful lot of noise...'
Review of 16/2/09 Parts & Labor support by MalkyB
'Bronto Skylift took a firmer grip of my heart, albeit through my throat, with a set that damaged my trust in all things not Bronto.'
The Skinny 25/02/09
'What with the fashionable rise of happy-clappy dross à la the Knack-pilfering Ting Tings in recent times, it’s not often a two-piece like Bronto Skylift, for all their visceral intensity, are afforded the good will they need to progress. However, half an hour spent in the company of this savage drum ‘n’ guitar combo reveals an undeniable, primal appeal. Certainly, Eagle/Falcon is a satisfying appetiser; the jarring riffs and powerhouse drumming by turns tastefully recollecting Helmet and The Bronx. But live - where flailing arms and precise jazz-fills leave jaws on the floor - you will find this band on fire. [Johnny Langlands]

Ahoy! How do you do? I met a man with a beard in Inverness called Ben, and he told me I should check you guys out, as our EP artwork was apparently strikingly similar to yours! Having had a look i would say he's right, although I must say I think I prefer your dinosaur, he's a lot edgier. Lovely songs also I must say =)
Electropapknit are pleased to announce that we are back with a new club night featuring amazing bands from Wednesday 4 November 2009!!!
As a new night in the now long gig history of Electropapknit shows, we thought we had to come up with an apt name that put across what we are about: great bands, cheap prices and bloody good times.
Therefore the new clubnight will be called Panda Panda Panda!
Based at the Glasgow School of Art, door entry with be £3 with cheap drink deals on shots at £1, pints £1.50 and vodka mix £1.50. We are very excited about the first night in November as it features three of our favourite most excellent bands from Glasgow:
Vom - mind bending apocalypse space rock, with a nod to the lounge effect that might just melt you! This aggression won't stand, man!
The Ballad of Mable Wong - jangled up bloody alt fun, with progressive and decadent melodies released by sharp guitar crunch, Sexy!
Mr Peppermint - former Hyena megasexuals, with swooning noise vox and tub thumping rhythms. Killer riffs on one side, masks in the other!
2's UP, it's ma fuckin birthday... Free Limited Edition Print (1/50) and an 80min mix cd (1/150) to the earliest arrivals...
