Discovered in 2005 by John Peel, who championed their songs about sex, curries & rock 'n' roll & started the rollercoaster ride that led them to exposure on BBC Radio 1 & 6 in 2007. Alternative punk-pop group THE POCKET GODS with their ode to jumble sales 'Jombal Party' which is an airwave fave are all set to take the world by storm!
Their dizzying heights achieved thus far include headlining a showcase at In The City, Manchester (International Industry Event), a live Hub Session for Tom Robinson On BBC Radio 6 (the first unsigned band to play in the hub) & on featuring on his 'Best Of 2007' show, regular airplay on Radio 1 & XFM, Napster 'Download Of The Day'. Support gigs with The Vibrators & The Victorian English Gentlemans Club & an entry on Cherryade's Xmas Album for the second year running.
The Pocket Gods debut album release features 15 songs of pure rock n rollium or what Radio 1’s Huw Stephens says
“Songs about sex, curries and rock n roll….genius!”
It Features the Radio 1 One Music fave songs: “Jombal Party”, “VVBUD” and “I Love The World” as well as the John Peel favourite “Ballad of the Peshwari naan”.
The Atomicduster music zine says of the gods:
“They sound like the Kills after they’ve inhaled some seriously heavy shit”
The Mag
says:
“the fun and adventure spills out of the speakers with the mantra that rock and roll is still alive and kicking.”
Copies available for £7.00 from the nub country records shop along with all the other pocket gods releases:

Hallo Goa-fan So jetzt ist es so weit.! An diesem Samstag steigt die Party "Night of Psycho" in der Stadthalle Dietikon. Ein fettes Line-up haben wir für euch auf die Beine gestellt. Als Live Acts haben wir Alien Project, Freakulizer, Sensual Squeak und Refract für euch gebucht. Aber auch die Dj- Sets von Save the Robot (Neues Projekt von Alien Project), Pinky n Brain, D.J.O.E. , Mellycimi, Beatsurfer und Nygma werden alles geben um die Party richtig zu beschallen! Auch akustisch lässt unser Kling & Freitag System der extraklasse keine Wünsche offen. Das Deko-Team von Goanimal und unser VJ Exit aus England werden sich die grösste Mühe geben um eine unvergessliche Atmosphere zu schaffen, was sicher an jeder Party was besonderes ist. Also es steht nichts mehr im Weg am Samstag ab 22:00 bis 12:00 Sonntag 12:00 Mittags kompromisslos zu feiern. Wir freuen uns auf eine Hammer Party mit euch. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=111458690675&ref=tshttp://www.psy-load.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=49&Itemid=59http://www.goatrance.de/goabase/party/details/47310 Euer Psyload Team

Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.
