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
.....This gig is going to be one of the most incendiary events you will EVER see.
NFR LIVE is at The Hope this THURSDAY. Just for this month. Next time we’re back to Friday. Hope you can make it.
Brighton’s only free future music live band club night >>>
Laish Band are a genuine real, roots and dust folk band, hotwired into the 22nd century - a hybrid of rewardingly sensual experience the like of wish I can damn near promise you won’t have seen before (www. myspace. com/laishmusic).
The Stars Down To Earth say Rock And Roll Is Not Enough. It probably isn’t, which is why they get all percussive and pretty and heart-meltingly gorgeous. Because Rock and Roll is not enough (www. myspace. com/thestarsdowntoearth).
Last Days of Lorca have attitude. They have scary breaks of intimidating drums and will floor you with massive, immersive tidal waves of indie-noise – think Radiohead, but fiercer (www. myspace. com/lastdaysoflorca)
We’ve got a new venue for it – The Hope – BLAM in the centre of town. Still free.
Hope you can make it, this one’s going to be intense and a whole lot of fun.
Brighton’s Autumn Chorus are a thing of wonder to behold. Huge beautiful tunes that shimmer along their course across the most mind expanding terrain. Plus, their drummer drums for Diagonal too - BLAM! (www. myspace. com/autumnchorus)
London’s Kontakte draw from all sides of the sonic spectrum fusing together deep passions for Post - Drone - Space and Krautrock. The bands love for distorted beats, transience and star-scraping melodies informs them on their quest to create music of depth, space and intensity (www. myspace. com/kontakteuk)
THEN to headline, Brighton’s raring-ist hariest improv thrill-ride - Passiondale - relentless rising groovescapeness packed with uncomfortable samples, bleeping toms, shimmering guitar work and distorted howling. (no MySpaces for them, so you’ll just have to come and see for yourself!)
