Pioneers of AGITrawk, Loci are a visceral frenzy - frustration-fuelled and low on ritalin.
Haemorrhaging for your pleasure, over the last 130 shows Loci have left a wake of destroyed instruments and body parts across the country. Touring relentlessly, this Welsh three-piece refuse to sit still, bringing their musical disobedience to venues such as Barfly, the Little Civic, the Cavern Club, and Bierkeller, as well as supporting bands including Die So Fluid and Killing for Company (ex-Stereophonics).
Airplay and press within the UK and internationally have hailed Loci as “raw energy unleashed” (Punk Scene), “dark and scintillating yet vibrant and abrasive” (Toxic Pete), and as “a band that breaks the rules and with it brings a bit of fresh air to what is on the whole a boring music scene in the UK” (Street Voice).
Beginning the year by being selected to play the Red Stripe Music Award, Loci were flagged by The Fly magazine as one of the highlights of the event. Now, following the success of the Filtered to Function EP and Loci Hate You Tour, they have unleashed their self-produced sophomore release 'Medic' - a grindhouse blend of the sarcastic, damaged and vital.
Just a message to say thanks for the add, and intrest in Blood Sugar!
If you know of any local bands that might be up for helping us out with the gig, let us know, don't hesitate to link them to either the FaceBook, or the MySpace,
We've got two very different but very awesome shows for you this week...
First up is THE DEAD FORMATS (Visible Noise) on Wednesday 1st July. For fans of THE CLASH and THE JAM, The Dead Formats are catchy choruses, post-punk ethics and true self belief.
Supporting are THE JET BOYS, IN ISOLATION and SINATRA.
And if that doesn't float your boat, SAUSAGEFEST 2009 is coming up on Sunday 5th July, featuring the best on local and national metal and hardcore. THE RED CHORD, THE ARUSHA ACCORD, MARTYR DEFILED, RANDOM CONFLICT and loads more!
