   About Nosferatu D2
Nosferatu D2 are two brothers from Croydon, the deep south of south London.

ADAM - plays the drumkit.
BEN - Plays the guitar and the vocal.

Damn Pest.com: "They could be young and naïve (they sound it, in a good way), old and jaded, or just very smart None of which matters".

NME: "This south London duo dound like post-rockers Mogwai reinterpreting choice moments from The Fall's illustrious back catalogue".

God is in the TV: "Like Art Brut and Biffy Clyro playing a Pavement song at the wrong speed as their girlfriends leave them, it shouldn't work but gloriously, it does.".

Nosferatu D2 was formed in June 2005, and was ended in June 2007.

Sorry to keep bothering you like this. However...

SAT 21st APR 2007 7 - 10.30PM

DOGNTANK / WHITE HILLS / BURNING IDIOT NOISE
(WHITE HILLS ONLY UK DATE !!)

The Engine Room, Preston Street, Brighton
Tickets £6 adv Available from Rounder Records 01273 325440/ Resident 01273 606312

A night of amazing stoner psych.
DOGNTANK are a mighty power trio formed by SPIRITUALIZED and BRAIN DONOR's legendary guitarist Doggen, Charlie Wayman and Antronhy OH - it's an unrestrained but always melodic sonic attack, summoning the anarchic full-on spirit of MC5. Most special guests (from NYC) WHITE HILLS arrive in the UK on the back of a recently released LP on JULIAN COPE's "F*ck Off And Di" label. Close associates of the heavy monster sound that is TEMPLE OF BON MATIN and widely considered to be in the same league as COMETS ON FIRE and ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE...
“…this is some seriously tripped out swirling cosmic proggy, krautrock flecked, keyboard drenched outer outer outer space rock. Think just the jams from all the best Hawkwind songs, or the dreamiest mellowest bits of your favorite Monster Magnet tracks. Mix in some Neu! and some Faust and even some Stereolab at times and you'll just be scratching the surface of White Hills' sound.”
-Aquarius Records
Brightons own garagekraut luminaries BURNING IDIOT NOISE will also be in full flowing stompingly psychedelic attendance...

THE LATE GREATS / SWIMMING / MOOSBRUGGER
@ The Engine Room, Preston St., Brighton (UK)
Doors 7.30 - 10.30
£5 entry

"...minimalist, hectoring, almost Fall-esque vocal and a drummer who seems intent upon ending his existence before the ending of the song, this is a very lean three-minute experience...THE LATE GREATS possess all the mind-bending exhilaration of an out-of-control relationship." - URB ezine
SWIMMING are a glorious swirling odyssey of sound, recalling House Of Love or fellow Nottonians Amusement Parks On Fire, while opening duties fall to the caustic and attitude driven MOOSBRUGGER, who's track "Popkulchurubish" ought to be an anthem for the next five generations of indie kids...
