A change of line up for this Thursday's gig featuring PLEASE.

Temple Of Mithras have now been replaced in their absence by Glasgow's Gummy Stumps, as well as Lobster Priest who have also been added to the bill.

A turn of luck not to be missed!

This takes place this Thursday! See you there? d.x.




Distraction presents Kania Tieffer, a otter-fixated Chick On Speed cacking out pleasantly disturbed lo-fi fake nonsense r'n'b and vitriolic electropop with cheap children's keyboards, a battered old computer and an electric guitar, in an unmissable live show.
Support comes from sample stealing, tune pinching, melody wrecking a-moral wrong-uns and kings of nostalgia-core Radgepackets, and pointlessly hostile bootmash-noisewhore-wrongtronica idiot Dressed In Wires! Cor!

Only 4 quid in, kick-off at 8pm, find out more here!

Alright mate i havent been on in ages either since ive ran out of internet in me house. Aye i tried extracting the paramol but not sure what went wrong, the gunk like the paracetimol didnt really seperate out from the codeine. I tasted it but tasted foul unfortunatly. That wild lettuce on the otherhand is really good for the money ya pay tho. I got some thurs, and extracted it on friday. Me and me mate were playin on Pro Evo and didnt even realise the game finished haha, pure daze.
Its a bit like codeine and green at the same time.

Kool i'll see if i can get there. I checked out that cars can be blue, didnt realise they were comin all the way from america. Some canny poppy tunes with viral lyrics, reminds me of the old TV show Daria for some reason.
The gig was a bit of a mess to be honest, that band from Paris were meant to be kippin at mine but it was s shit turnout so we couldnt pay em the 150 quid the were owed, so the froggies we're goin off it like. They just fucked off in the end but yknow, there French anyway.
I think i insulted one of them by sayin how scruffy a city Paris is.
Whats on the cards 2day anyway mate? I think am gonna try that paramol a bit later, can ya just get it from Boots? Cheers man

Ah yeah the Elms is nice like. I live on claremont terrace, its them big houses opposite st anthonys school like, its a nice place. Ya should think about it like, Ashbrook's always got somewhere decent to offer. Bugger thats shit like, i know of a drummer if ya were stuck mind. Kool man i'll check em out. Ya shud try n head down to Sunderland for a gig soon coz me mates are puttin on gigs at the voodoo room, got a band on 2moro from Paris that sound a bit like battles.

Nov 12 2008 11:03 AM

Aye too right, diet heroin. I used to get thru all of me tablets in a day or 2 when i had a prescription then just leave it til another few wks. I got a coffee filter from argos n when me arthritus gets bad i use neurophen-plus tablets n extract them from there. Dont seem to get the itches from tht way somehow, dunno why.
So where were ya livin before?
Exernia





Nov 11 2008 6:32 PM

Nice1 mate, i used to work at the courts at chester le st, was pretty shit tbh, used to wank in the toilets and the manager was a wanker himself. Kool where dya ya codeine from? I used to have a hernia (hence exernia) not long ago and got them on a regular basis.

Nov 11 2008 11:05 AM

Haha, do ya's do any gigs yaselvs? Aye its a canny mad name, i thought if ya could put a straw in a pussy and suck, what sort of fruit flavour would a certain person be. Anyhow, its hard to describe i suppose maybe something a bit stonery but some songs we have are quite heavy to the point of doomy. I think we're goin for a crossover of earth and acid king maybe.
I think we may be giggin in a couple of months but we lack a bass player atm

Nov 10 2008 6:57 PM
