ha ha, what a great video.

"i don't honestly know what inspired this new material, i feel like i am approaching a new plane of creativity, a new level of sonic consciousness that i can't begin to describe for your readers. it is like a second life of innovation that i feel i am, in some way, coming to approach. i believe i have been living in a musical shadow all my life, and my time in the light is finally approaching, at about 1million miles an hour, from the otherside of the musical universe.  i can feel it between my fingers, and this next album is really all about being able to clench it without it slipping from my grasp..."

see you tonight. dressing up?

Hullo Giorgos,

We're very much looking forward to playing with you. Our first Edinburgh gig in ages, and we get to play it with a band we're big fans of. Hurrah.

We're looking forward to it.

Noises Like Ashes SINGLE RELEASE THIS FRIDAY @ Confusion is Sex - 11pm The Bongo Club

"Like a cracked toy from the 80’s being played to death with a hybrid of Ian Curtis & Mark E Smith fronting . . ." - Subba-Cultcha

CONFUSION IS SEX
Where fantasy becomes reality, Confusion Is Sex invites freaks, weirdos, princesses, kings, slaves... CiS is an environment rather than just a music night. It's like walking into a David Lynch set where the weird is normal, giving people the chance to be something they're not.

======LIVE ACT IN THE MAIN ROOM=======
The Foundling Wheel - Single RELEASE

======LIVE BURLESQUE ACTS========
Lilly de Lure will perform 'Who's that creeping'

============DJS================
GET MESSY + L
