Pricks....
Join us on Friday, 23rd of October 2009 in Bewley's Cafe theatre, Grafton Street, to bid a fond farewell to Brian Cullen's Love Bullets. We have decided to retire the name after 5 years and regroup and rename after this point. I must stress that the band are staying together but this will be our last hurrah under this moniker and will be returning under a new guise real soon.
Support for the evening comes from the ever wonderful The Bastard Rain.
This gig is strictly limited to 50 people so the first at the door get to come in. Come say goodbye to an old friend.
Door Price:8 euro.
Opens: 8:30
Brian Cullen's Love Bullets:
From the dark recesses of the last recession, Brian Cullen's Love Bullets have reared their ugly, yet well groomed heads. The band have been together 5 years through thick and thin and have finally decided it's time for a change and are moving on to bigger and brighter things under a new moniker.
The band describe themselves as a mixture of all sorts of influences and released their 3rd ep this year entitled Otherwise It Will Be This Way Forever (limited edition 200 copies)
Review of said
the third ep from a band fast becomming one of our favourites on the local scene at the moment. as ever the ep is superbly packaged, these guys always put such love and effort into their releases. the ep comes in a lovely card sleeve with a foldout poster inner sleeve. along with the title track the ep also features six fifteen one eight oh eight, killing for company and its pretty much over already which also appeared on our road records sampler cd for record store day. this dublin based three piece have an overall sound with really reminds us of some of those classic early factory records with a production quality that a certain mr martin hannett would be proud to call his own. there is a certain new wave feel about it with moments harking back to both joy division and very early new order. dark hearted indie rock at its very very finest. july 2009
