The Button Factory are very proud to present the best in Irish talent by showcasing 3 of Irelands most exciting acts at the moment. Dublin based Post/Math rock ensemble Alarmist, Belfast based disco pop outfit Go Wolf and No Monster Club.
ALARMIST
Alarmist are an instrumental four-piece from Dublin, consisting of Neil Crowley, Elis Czerniak, Osgar Dukes and Barry O'Halpin. Recorded with Solar Bears' Rian Trench, their second EP Pal Magnet retains the frenetic energy, playful melodicism and constant experimentation of their first release, while incorporating a wider and more colourful and sophisticated palette of sounds. A wealth of influences can be heard across these four tracks; their sound world can instantly shift from a twanging mutation of 50s surf guitar to glitchy 8-bit electronics or cinematic, big-band influenced crescendos.
After the release of their 2011 self-titled debut EP, Alarmist gained a wide following, establishing themselves as a standout act on Dublin's independent music scene, praised equally for their sonic experimentation and for their dynamic, visual arresting live show. While inevitably compared to many acts on Ireland's healthy post/math-rock scene, Alarmist gained attention for their audibly wide range of influences. Within their configuration of electric guitars, double drums and electronics, instrumental guitar music is only one touchstone, with the various members' backgrounds in jazz, electronica and contemporary composition infiltrating their tightly wound tracks.
GO WOLF
The story of how Go Wolf came together is almost too perfectly arty to be true: a poetry night in a Belfast barber shop. One man enjoys another’s poem and notices their similar dress sense. They start talking and decide to form a band, add a drummer and away they go. Since then, the trio have quickly become one of the most talked-about new names in the Belfast scene – full of style, charisma and a dedication to perfectly pure pop.
NO MONSTER CLUB
Noise pop trio who have been on the Irish music scene for longer than you can remember. They have just released their latest album "foi grois" which is up on YouTube in its full entirety. Check it out now! http://www.nomonsterclub.com
