ALARMIST are an instrumental four-piece from Dublin, formed in 2008 by Neil Crowley, Elis Czerniak, Osgar Dukes and Barry O'Halpin.
All members are multi-instrumentalists, playing an equal role in bringing together the organic and electronic elements that form their sound. They build their songs from tightly wound melodies and frenetic rhythms, blending interlocking guitars, glitchy electronics, duelling percussion and rich wind arrangements.
The sonic range and visual impact of their live show has quickly gained Alarmist attention; so far this year, they've been cited as “Ones to Watch for 2011” on music sites State.ie and Ragged Words, as well as being selected for the Whelan's Ones To Watch Festival and the upcoming Hard Working Class Heroes.
This gig in Block T marks the launch of their self-titled debut EP, which will be released through Eleven Eleven Label. Live visuals will be provided on the night by Slipdraft.

THE DYING SECONDS began in 2007 as the recording project of David Cantan and Jack Quilligan. A critically acclaimed, eponymous, debut album under the belt they spent 2008-2009 earning their live spurs gigging around Ireland and the UK, including 5 shows in 2 years at Electric Picnic. Over that time things evolved from a two-men-and-their-laptops situation into a bombastic six-piece with trumpets, strings, synths, singing, guitars of various sorts, and lots of drums! The result is a maelstrom of joyful melancholy.
