Hello folks! Just wanted to alert you to the final two PPY shows before Christmas. Having a little break here but not before these two belters!
First up, on Friday we've the wonderful Helene. Formed out of the ashes of Barefoot Cantessa who released one album on Postcard in 1996, Helene are an indie pop band with heavy sixties leanings. They are supporting their third full length, 'Heliotrope' and this is a rare chance to catch them live. Previous album 'Routines' was a gem:
‘Produced by Cocteau Twins maestro Simon Raymonde, the songs have a lush density, moving from meditative Velvet Underground-style rhythms to intimate wordplay, lilting mantras or startling wall of guitar.’ Mojo.
The supporting cast includes Mossyrock, a folk-y electronic duo from New York who were great when playing in The Basement earlier in the year, The Sorry Kisses (Sam Forrest and Hayley Hutchinson) and Burial In The Sky.
The biggest show we've done to date takes place on Saturday Oct. 25th at The Duchess with Canadian country rockers The Sadies returning to York for the third time. Taking elements of rock'n'roll, surf, garage, country and sixties rock and still managing to sound just like The Sadies this band have been wowing audiences for the last fifteen years.
Garth Hudson (The Band), Jon Spencer, Gary Louris, Neko Case, Blue Rodeo and Heavy Trash have all guested on their records. They are rather bloody good live. The Federals are supporting and it's a Saturday night. P.A.R.T.Y. O.N.
Sic Alps - San Fransisco two piece setting the bar for bands doing the modern psych/folk/sloptastic JAMC sound. What sets Sic Alps apart from the rest is their unique ability to mash the rough edge of the folk strum, cutting songs with razor sharp candor, and artfully landing somewhere between flowery optimism and filthy regret. Stylistically, they're are all over the place too, incorporating jazzy freak outs, the sincere tinkering of piano keys, and muddy, down-trodden rhythms.Not easily pinned down into a specific sound or genre, Sic Alps reiterate their freedom of form with each successive release. With a musical pedigree second to none, with both members doing time in such outfits as Coachwhips, Hospitals and Total Shutdown. Already notorious for their exciting and energetic live performances, they've released music on Mt. St. Mtn, 777 was 666, Animal Disguise, Woodsist and Skulltones and their new LP has just been released by Tom Lax's legendary Siltbreeze label. So come on down and experience the madness of Sic Alps.
With supports from Leeds' deranged strum and bash trio THE UPRIGHTS and Sheffield's kings of manic retardo punk THE HIPSHAKES (Black Lips' Die Slaughterhaus label, Goner), this should be a night you won't forget!

ENABLERS A truely unique band hailing from San Francisco, California - the 4 journey men bring there new long player 'Tundra' to grace our shores once again. 2 interlocked twisted - driving guitars heavily interwoven amongst a unique take on drums delivered amongst pete simonellis dark narrative tales. Recently having toured with Don Caballero and shared the stage with Qui and Wire . . . Live this band are really not to be missed!
MUGSTAR Heavy heavy unrelenting space drone!!!! from Liverpools MUGSTAR. They are the sound of 10,000 suns exploding, pulsing and repetitive beauty, sounding like a sonic mantra. They set sail for the sun in 2002 and have completed numerous voyagers with the likes of Mogwai, Melt Banana, Onieda, Acid Mothers Temple and Part Chimp.
EUCHRID EUCROW Hailing from Brighton - a 3 piece of euchrid, abi fry and caroline weeks they play accordion, guitar and viola irrespectively. Think constelation, a hawk and a hacksaw,leonard cohen,nick cave . . . . raw beautiful passages . .
BROKEN ARM - four dudes from Leeds making garage-rock filled with killer bozo riffs. Their first Bristol show and part of their first tour, they will have their brand new debut EP available at the show, which has come out on Liverpool's Sea records. Members of Broken Arm have previously been in Sailors (gringo), Static Waves, Woman (sea) and Like a Kind of Matador (tumult). Now that's pedigree.
FRINGES - new band from Bristol with members of Soeza, Line, Headfall and ex-Scarecrows and ex-Murder of Rosa Luxemburg. More sweet pedigree. A tight, jagged, uncluttered, direct sorta sound made by clean-cut squares and scruffy slacks. They are a quartet, with two guitars, saxophone and drums, they keep it instrumental.
COREY ORBISON - play abrasive, messy, short-sharp, stop-start songs about our cold cold world. Members also in Headfall and involved with the very excellent Local Kid thing. Check the new tracks up on their myspace!
AT THE JUNCTION, 51 Stokes Croft, Bristol, BS1 3QP
