Hey there folks - just a reminder that the Ladybird show is coming up tomorrow at The End, on Scotswood Road.
Unfortunately My First Tooth have been felled by a virus but we're replacing them with the gorgeous Dot To Dots so all's well in the state of Denmark. Whatever that means.

As a little taster, here's a video clip of Ladybird playing an impromptu set onboard Camp '08 at Low Hum.

*********************



LADYBIRD
Jangly and joyous, winsome indie-pop from France via New Zealand
Remeniscent of Galaxie 500's hymnal gloom, the Modern Lovers' outsider spirit, and Mazzy Star's gauche, injured pop - Fire Escape Talking
MP3: Fair Love

DOT TO DOTS
String enthused bittersweet Billy Bragg inspired loveliness - The Gen
Contemporary folk flourishes and cutthroat guitars - Metro
MP3: Labored With Love

RAMSHACKLE
Dodgy harmonies & gratuitous swearing
MP3: Unspoken. Forever. Oh...

MONDAY 17 NOVEMBER 2008
THE END - 78 SCOTSWOOD RD, NEWCASTLE
8PM - £3 FAKEINDIELABEL. CO. UK/FIL109

Aug 25 2008 10:17 PM

what did i miss????
(do you mean the seaside thing with the sunderland music forum?? or something else???)

My reason is: not having a student bus pass depresses me because i have to pay for bus tickets individually each day (oh boo hoo! the life of a pleb). unless i get a weekly bus ticket but then I have no need to go anywhere 7 days a week as it would result in spending money in some shop (which also depresses me). So i say to myself, as long as total bus fares per week is less than the cost of a weekly bus ticket then it's okay. (this is called a terrible mistake as it has terrible effects on me come september time) And i'd already used up most of my bus fare quota earlier in the week.
Besides, it costs too much for a go north east bus and stagecoach bus as different tickets for different companies, and I hate how newcastle & sunderland have stagecoach but the INBETWEEN (washington) has go north east. stupid public transport.

(plus i had an animation to finish, and some maths to revise - which i didn't)

capische?
(i know... just a bit wierd)

A Fire Born In Dallas (Razmataz Lorry Excitement remix)

Available now on limited edition mini 3" CD or via digital download:

iTunes
Amazon MP3

Either follow the links above or search "Ever Since The Lake Caught Fire" on iTunes.

"Produced by ¡Forward, Russia!'s Tom Woodhead, debut single A Fire Born In Dallas (released on the Pay For The Piano imprint) finds post-hardcore and prog influences welded together to create a sound that is both vulnerable and self-assured. Admittedly, the usual influences of Fugazi and At The Drive-In are worn pretty obviously, but the band are far more than mere copyists.

Indeed, at their single launch they offered an intense and impassioned performance, with snare cracks and upstrokes reverberating around the venue.

Ever Since The Lake Caught Fire, it would seem, have more than enough firepower in their sonic arsenal to kick some of the music world's feted young pretenders into touch.
