Sounds Like
If The Clash sang Dolly Parton after watching a Who concert while sitting on an old comfy sofa with cushions stuffed with rubble and broken glass....
The unique M5 Axis sound, carefully honed after many minutes of deep thought, reflects the long and diverse musical backgrounds of the four Slow Cones. At times happy, at times melancholy, the spiky, raucous yet melodic and surprisingly subtle guitar based rock will really get you moving and singing. How far and what is up to you…...
The Slow Cones are from the M5 Axis - Wellington - Taunton - Bristol
Just to let you know about an extra-special New Root gig on Saturday 31st May @ The Croft, Bristol.
We're doing a headline set featuring Visual Projections from VJ James Bragg and everyone gets a FREE copy of our new 'Sick of Me' EP on the door. Venue Magazine described it as '...an extraordinary sound...a sort of power pop/goth/rock opera hybrid...the most exhilarating thing we've heard all week'.
There also support from Sally-Anne Langton - 'one of Bristol's most promising singer/songwriters' - plus Special Guests. All for £5. You can buy tickets in advance from www.thenewroot.com
Thanks and hopefully see you there on Sat 31st May!
Good news! Our debut EP - Empty Love EP -will be available to download from iTunes, Napster etc on 24th March 2008. So please show your support and buy it.
