Venue presents...
THE GUNPOWDER PLOT
The Blue Mountain Club & Casablancas Stokes Croft, Bristol
Saturday 5th November
3 Stages 2 Venues 28 Bands & Artists Live Music from 2 pm - midnight DJs til really late £6 Advance
This is the follow up to last year's 'October Revolution' at The Anson Rooms
Here is a provisional lineup for the live music. (2pm - midnightish). DJs (between bands and 12 - 3) still tbc. These are in entirely random order, not order of playing on the day.
TERMITES - Gaping death pop for the hard of living - one of the most witty and imaginative indie rock bands around. Could well be massive.
THE FABRICS - All conquering, genre-slaying party band - like an illegal rave kicking off in a New Orleans jazz club.
KNOWLEDGE OF BUGS - Warm, wonderful, innovative music lovingly crafted from loops of acoustic, electric and electronic sound.
CAROLINE MARTIN - Numerous sessions for Peel and Rob Da Bank are testament to the quality of her chilling, darkly comic, beautifully sung creations.
TREEHOUSE BURNING - Ace pop-punkers with bubblegum riffs and song titles like 'Chicks Dig Scars'
SJ ESAU - Now with a full live band, Sam's imagination is a treasure chest of bendy pop diamonds.
IVORY SPRINGER - A precision-tooled Dreadnought of all-conquering manrock. Last show for a while for one of Bristol's best loved bands.
THE FOG BAND - Critically lauded art-schoolers signed to Bath's superb Purr Records. Frontman, Bobby Grindrod, has easily the best name in rock.
STEVELESS - John Peel's last great musical love. Mouthy, ramshackle and completely inspired.
ROSE KEMP - One of the most powerful and arresting voices on the scene with soul-searching, folky melodies and razor sharp hooks.
THE MIGHTY STARS - Beat-pop perfection from the kings of the two-minute chorus.
BIG JOAN - Three Englishmen, a lady from Berlin and a collective imbalance of hormones. More bass! More noise!
FORTUNE DRIVE - Much loved melodic, soulful rockers who have recently supported the likes of Soulwax and Jimmy Eat World. Proper rock stars in the making?
HUNTING LODGE - Jaw-dropping disco-punk lunacy. Like Studio 54 being held at gunpoint by circus freaks with a grudge against tunes.
THE CUBAN HEELS - More hooks than an Olympic changing room. Presence, charisma and tunes.
BAD:SCIENCE - Outstanding Bush-baiting conscious hip hop band now resident in Brighton who have supported the likes of AIM and Nightmares On Wax.
MALE - Awesome German-Egyptian lo-fi rock duo combining raw post-punk guitar with an unharnessed rhythm assault and two of the most distinctive voices around. .
BABEL - Thrilling, upbeat acoustic folk-rock with one of the most intense frontmen around.
THE SCRUB - Ska-punk-dub-hoppers with a massive cult following. One of the biggest live draws in Bristol.
HACKSAW - Reliably shambolic duo playing short, fast, hilarious punk rock anthems about baggy trousers and geese.
GEISHA - The nastiest, most life-affirmingly beautiful racket in the world.
MEA CULPA - Electro/hardcore/metal fiends peddling wanton, exhilerating noise. If your ears are bleeding, these boys are probably to blame.
BRONNT INDUSTRIES KAPITAL - Pioneering, hypnotic electronica from Dusseldorf ex-pats with a John Carpenter fixation.
3 HOS, 2 MEXICANS AND A TIN OF SPANNERS - Loud, opinionated, guitar-toting spleenrock at its incendiary best.
BUCKY - Adorably manic country-rock two piece with awesome tunes and hilarious lyrics. Probably the only band in Bristol that is loved by everyone in town.
FIGMENT - Sulky vocals, insolent swaggers and nasty growly antique guitars being elegantly massacred.
THE GIRL FROM HEADQUARTERS - Brand new group sounding something like The Fall if they had recorded film soundtracks during a Californian surfing phase in the late 50's. Bristol's discovery of 2005?
