I think our drummer knows one of the folks from Blue Sky Archives to complete the circle, in a way

Looking forward to the gig on the 16th :D

Oh yep, here's ours:
THE SAILPLANES recall scrappy yet ambitious art-pop like Life Without Buildings, Electrelane and The Raincoats. Relocating back to London from Berlin, and bringing with them some of that city's coldness and desolate edge, The Sailplanes have toned-down the abrasive sounds of their first album to produce an altogether more accessible proposition.

just use this one for us.
Black International is a 3-piece group based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The group was formed in late 2006, hastily convened to play a debut gig at Edinburgh College of Art, where they had previously studied.

Geographic and philosophical influences include: Glasgow and Edinburgh 1979-81, Manchester 1979-82, the Pacific Northwest 1988-91, and quite a few others that they may or may not acknowledge in conversation.

Oh Balls.

Our lead singer is in Italy over the 15th. I am currently trying to sort out a replacement guitarist so that I can sing (lel). Failing that we'll have to cancel.

:(
