melancholy low-temperature stuff like Low, Sparklehorse, Red House Painters, Arab Strap prog/psychedelia/textural stuff like Mew, My Bloody Valentine, Múm, Sigur Rós pop rock magisterios such as Pixies, Frank Black, Compulsion, Kristin Hersh and dark lead-pencil stuff to fill in the shadows, like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

if you could set one up, or get us on any bill we will totally be down there! seriously. the EP artwork took about 8 hours to do altogether (that's about 25 copies) and drove me to point of insanity haha. i'm glad people like it though. wreckon i could interest you in a copy one day? x
just off to see you guys at the fleece. going to come down and probably have way too much to drink and tomorrow think - oh nooo! I shouldn't have done that while trying to get my mangled head around the first of our ' FREE DRINKS SPECIAL" gig at the LOUISIANA. there's dedication for you. If our LOUISIANA gig is a failure I shall blame the sky is blue for luring me out of my little den to hear there epic tunes. In future please become crap so i don't have to come and see you when I should be tucked up in bed.
Hey, looking forward to playing with you in July - I got a CD from a mutal friend a few years ago, very nice! We're playing on the 22nd May at the Louie - pop down if you guys are about!
Thought you'd like to know that we've got a few gigs coming up. Mon 5th in the Fleece Mon 12th at Mr Wolfs Fri 13th (ooh err!) at the Mayor's Arm's. Maybe see you there!

looking forward to your fleece gig. Me, Jer and Suze were just talking about you whilst listening to antarctica in the car. The likelyhood is you'll see the three of us on the night, jer's really into your stuff as well. Jon R - your recording of 'cold' has come out really well and matches up to the other stuff on the album nicley. I'm launching the album on wed feb 6th at the louis, I'll give you a free copy next time I see you.
Heya Jon. Long time no action eh! I think I'm a convert to Facebook now. Anyways, we were recording a "headphone" jam the other day (leccy drums no amps no bvs) and got a rough demo of songs which we've stuck on ye ole myspace and I reckon you might like? Let us know what you think. We're still in between drummers but I have got in touch with my favourite venue in Bristol who is happy to put us up should we play down is Brizzle - possible TSIB action? Anyways, hope all is good mate. Rik The Fret
