mrw44 presents - a night of doomy soundscapes featuring:
WRAITHS + VISITOR Q + WAS A FIGHTER + EROS ANANKE
TUESDAY 31st JANUARY at Henry's Cellar Bar
doors 7.30pm, £4 / £3
- WRAITHS: First outing for this new project involving the people
behind the FIMBULVETR club night, best described as "pre-industrial
apocalyptic plaguescape"
http://www.myspace.com/wraiths
- VISITOR Q: Doom electronics. Slow-motion beats, heavy drones and
gut-shunting sub bass from one half of Dirty Husband.
- WAS A FIGHTER: Stealing some CDH descriptions:
"Like Canadian prog rockers Rush becoming trapped in the bodies of
local hardcore kids, then choking on their own conviction.
Uproarious."
"Some people just don't get it. They could try all their lives and
they still just wouldn't understand the hardcore spirit. Was a
fighter most certainly get it. It shines out of every chord,
strangled vocal and ragged beat. Seriously impressive for such a
young band. Its not what you play. Its how you play it and these guys
play their concerto like their lives depended on it. Take a dash of
Neil Perry, a dollop of Circle Takes the Square and bind together
with raw feeling."
