OUR ANNIVERSARY 10TH BOX SOCIAL,

Patrick Kelleher and His Cold Dead Hands
""You Look Cold" left me hot under the collar, this debut album from 24 year-old, Irish Patrick Kelleher is awe-inspiring in it's genre-bashing brilliance and refreshing take on a myriad of musical references. Swinging from Vincent Gallo's most whispery nonchalance to thumping electro beats circa Talking Heads with David Byrne/ Ian Curtis shouty vocals ('He Has to Sleep Sometime') via an obvious interest early 90s hip-hop, perhaps A Tribe Called Quest most noticeably, no small feat for one man!" - Amelia's Magazine

Children Under Hoof
...are five people from various regions of Ireland, brought together in college by a mutual love of Risk, Father Ted and 7"s played at 33 RPM. Members include Limerick's Miss Junior Teen '99, the co-founder of the original Ted Fest, 1/2 of experimental band Ixchel, 1/1 of Patrick Kelleher, and IADT's Best Tash 2006. Their music, vl tone busting/sax swarming/vss sampling/floor tom pounding noise creates a sound that could be described as trying to channel the souls of Robert Rendal, Michael Karoli and Porter Wagoner but failing in a wigi board inferno.

Who needs a bar b q?

If it's pissing rain can we get a massive pot build a huge fire under it and make a spicy noodle fiasco? then a wet t-shirt contest? back yard mud wrestling? or a contest in which we all lie on our backs, looking up, mouth open, breathing in (no swallowing) and see who drowns first? sweet no?

[snoopywaves]

Yeah, this was great. Enjoyed everything I saw, especially Hunter-Gatherer whose set was too short by about 500%. Also, sitting room + off-licence around the corner is an excellent substitute for dark venue + bar when your pockets are full of mostly fluff.
