Ok so here's the lowdown on the bands:
Monster Killed By Laser.
We've played with these guys a few times and they've always blown me away, first time in Ireland since the fantastic show with Like A Kind Of Matador a few years ago... Don't miss them!! (for fans of WAK style prog grooves)
This hard (Prog)rocking 4 piece have been tearing shit up since 2001 with roots born in Wakefield but now based in Leeds. As well as official approval by the 70s Italian Horror / Progmeisters GOBLIN, the band have flexed the boards with such greats as, Acid Mothers Temple, Big Business, Coughs, Dalek, Melvins, Oxes, The Pump, Sunburned, Wolf eyes Etc… Have been known to emit a certain presence and sex appeal in the live situation with an underlying aroma of mystique. Currently working on new full length album set for release in 09.
Bilge Pump
Bilge Pump are a rock band from Leeds, UK, with a penchant for raucous noise and apparently bizarre song-titles and lyrics. Formed in 1996, they consist of Emlyn Jones (bass/vocals), Joe Mask (guitar/vocals) and Neil Turpin (drums). To date they have realised two full-length albums, Let Me Breathe (2002) and Rupert The Sky (2008), both released by gringo records. The band recorded Maida Vale sessions for John Peel’s BBC radio programme: 23rd July 2003 and 16th October 2003.
A vinyl split single on run of the mill in 2006 has Bilge Pump’s cover of Jonathan Richman’s Government Center coupled with Pifco’s version of She Cracked
Ticket holders at Leeds’ annual Chinchillafest in May 2008 were given a CD compilation of eight Bilge Pump covers, recorded by eight different artists.
Slomatics
Belfast Heavy Heavy Rock! Guitar/Guitar/Drums.
Sometime this summer expect a 12" split with Like A Kind Of Matador will appear on Sound Devastation Records + a Split CD with Breaking Colts on Calculon Records.
