First 070808:
Released Sept 08' but brought to you in advance by Not For Resale, the new compilation release from Brighton's Toy Soldier Records gets it's rightful release knees-up (and in yr face) at NFR in August.

Then FRIDAY (080808 – YEAH!) brings you this:
The NFR club night in full effect - future disco, mutant indie, guest djs and bands. A ridiculously decadent night of neon insanity.
Starting off with ex-My Rhino man matt’s new Overwatch outfit. Solo guitars and electronics combine in a meshing and mashing of Warp style IDM electronics and crushing Relapse riffs and textures www. myspace. com/httpwwwmyspacecomoverwatch
Second up is London’s one and only 8-bit one-man thrash metal band. We’ve been playing him for months and are very excited to bring you his debut Brighton performance. The immense Kkasio-dooom-wave-thrash-tech-getto-core of Iron Pirate is primed, under orders and ready to ravage!!! Get his album now and see what’s in store for y’all come Friday www. myspace. com/ironpirat
Finishing you off will be Brighton’s very own P For Persia with their psycho-jungle-comes-alive inter-galactic no-wave, ex-grunge de-fib un-tuned diskko sludge. www. myspace. com/pforpersia
