   About Weirdo Guise
NICHE HOMO no.2




March 2009. Niche Homo is superior toilet literature. A music and illustration publication in digest format. Issue 2 is 56 pages long and features interviews with Fucked Up, Vivian Girls, Halo of Flies, Bilge Pump and Hipshakes, plus writings by Oxbow’s Eugene Robinson. Scott Soriano of Z-Gun writes "Turrrrrific music zine of the kind you thought didn't exist anymore." Dave Lang of the Lexicon Devil label says “I dig Niche Homo whole lot. Reminds me of some of the better 'zines from the great boom of the early '90s: Superdope, Wipeout! and Feminist Baseball. Pure, raw fandom for all the best u/ground shit currently happening w/zero doubt on their mind. Aw, shucks. Reading this makes me feel about 100 years old, but I'm all the better for it.”

Charlie Parr is from the same Duluth music scene that spawned the likes of Low and Haley Bonar, and his music delves deep into the back roads of American folk music, there’s hints of Robert Johnson, Nick Drake and Will Oldham in his playing, and a true from the heart power and clarity that is simply stunning. This guy is the real thing, and you can hear it in every note he plays, which would also explain why the people at the superb End of the Road festival ask him back every single year!

Neil McSweeney plays beautifully considered and perfectly restrained music that will delight fans of Low, Adrian Crowley, Nina Nastasia, Mark Kozelek, and Jason Molina.

Deftly fingerpicked folk loveliness from a local favourite - Michael Rossiter perfectly executes traditional folk as well as his own material, sings from his heart and gets the perfect sound from his guitar.

Sunday: 1/3/2009 @ The Packhorse, Leeds. Doors 8pm.
A Forest of Sound presentation in association. £5 adv / £6 on the door.
Tickets available at Jumbo Records, Crash Records, and We Got Tickets.

MORE AND MORE TIGER presents:

Thursday February 26th @ The Packhorse, Leeds

GREAT ESKIMO HOAX
Somewhere between the spasmodic mathpop of Youthmovies & the synth-drenched quirkiness of Cats in

Paris lie West Midlands trio Great Eskimo Hoax, with vocals at once melodic & shouty cutting through

carefully textured guitars, keys and insistent drum pulses.

http://www. myspace. com/greateskimohoax


MINNAARS
Intense, danceable, epic: that Forward Russia's Tom Woodhead has been working as their producer gives

an idea as to where they're coming from, but Minnaars add to that sound an incredible variety through

the use of loops, unpredictable structures & duelling synth & guitar.

http://www. myspace. com/minnaars


THE BLACKBIRD APPEAL
Whispered vocals & thick, fuzzy guitars at the front; along with drums cranking the tempo up at the

back, eking slices of pop out of a shoegazey-haze.

Hauschka
Having studied classical piano for ten years, Dusseldorf-based pianist/composer Volker Bertelmann's work as Hauschka is based upon a playful exploration of the possibilities of the 'prepared' piano. His resulting tracks are vivid, unconventional pieces made in a spirit of playful research-enthusiasm, which he's taken around the world - in the USA with Múm, in Japan with Colleen, and a debut, sold-out London show with Max Richter. Hauschka's music is a thing of beauty - intertwined melodies and rythyms that flit between gorgeously lush and complex and stunning minimalism.

Gareth S. Brown
With influences as diverse as Eastern European folk music, funeral marches and jewellery boxes, Gareth creates gorgeous work of layered beauty with nods towards Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Michael Nyman as well as latter day travellers such as Max Richter, Yann Tiersen and Aphex Twin.

Saturday: 8/11/2008 @ The Holy Trinity Church, Leeds. Doors 8.30pm.

A Forest of Sound presentation. £5 adv / £7 on the door.
Tickets available at Jumbo, Crash & We Got Tickets.
