Anyone up for putting on this exciting band in their town in April!!???
Dublin, Cork, Galway, Belfast?!?!?where ever...
Between the 20th to the 25th April(a Wed to a Sunday)
If you want to do a date(not with me, with the band..as in a gig date) - email me or PM me please!
If you want a cdr of their 16-BIT album, PM or email me.
If you want to buy 16-BIT - Check out the distro at Rimbaud Records.
Also see MP3 link at the bottom of this post.
They`ve played in the past with the likes of Erasa Erata, Yakuza, The Devils, Cat on Form, Milemarker, Oxbow and loads more...
TWO MEN, ONE DRUM MACHINE AND NO VOCALS.
Aurally Ann Arbor are like a mixing pot with shellac and some of the more melodic hardcore rock bands. Fully instrumental and permanently an inch from pure noise they always manage to hold it together and make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck.

Ann Arbor - 16 Bit(cd) review..
8/10
"Too many people scoff at the thought of a drum machine-propelled band. Well, the Sisters of Mercy made their career with Dr Avalanch handling the beats, and Godflesh might not have been quiet the titanic trendsetters had they not stepped out onto early stages with their trusty Boss Dr Rhythm tucked discreetly on top of an amp. Well, here's another outfit to add to the list of enterprising outfits: Ann Arbor, and with their post-rock, post-hardcore, post-spazz, post-Godflesh - hell! - post-fuckin-everything blen of suprisingly ambient sonics, they're not an outfit you're likely to forget in a hurry. Check out the the heartbeat-like procession of 'Rhythm', where reverb-laden axes splay out over time-bomb like hi-hats. Then there's the trance like 'Decimate' and 'Kill the Cool Cat', where jagged bass grooves are spliced with a wild scribble of guitar. In a league of their own. Nice."
review of Ann Arbors debut 16-BIT in 2003, from Rocksound (Cocksound more like! but you get an idea of what the band sound like)
