Swindon Music

They're touring next Feb I think!! yeah!

Just seen the lineup of the tour they are doing in the states at the mo, a dream bill.

The Gaslight Anthem
Alkaline Trio
Rise Against
Thrice.

Oh to be in the US for that

I also think this band sound gggreeatt. Thanks to a friend for the tip.

This is close to being my favourite album of the year. Absolutely brilliant. Classic American rock sound done in a non-shitty way. Yeah it worships at the temple at the Springsteen a bit too much but f**k it, thats a good temple to worship at.

We've got our tickets to see them in Bristol in February, I can't wait. Just have to tolerate all the scene kids ...

Thought about getting them, but had such a nightmare trying to see anything at that venue earlier in the year when we "saw" against me! I didnt bother......gutted tho as would love to see them.
Have a good un tho!!!!!

I haven't been to the Academy 2 before, so I can't comment on the venue. I figured I've got to see them on this tour before they either become so big they're playing arenas or they split up due to all the pressures of success.

Bought this the other day and it's proving a fine recommendation. Good shit.

You heard Polar Bear Club?

playing with them on their uk dates

Saw em a couple of weeks ago at the LA2. Supported by Thge King Blues, which I thought was a slightly odd combination.

Gaslight were pretty good. Bit static to look at, but the songs were album perfect. Can't help thinking they are a bit of a C,G,A,F one trick pony though.. I should know They have some cracking tunes though and they pulled them all out the bag.

King Blues, well frankly, they've lost it. They'd never hang a fuckin Landlord and that My Boulder song... that's just wank. Not bad live though, more interesting to watch than satring at Gaslight as they just stood there.

The barmaid had a finger missing. I was hammered but I remember this. She was also in band called "Laura Lost" .. She's Laura, I'm presuming the "Lost" part refers to the missing digit. I Myspace'd them for the sake of it, not bad.

I'll be seeing them in febuary.

Although im going to see Frank Turner if i'm honest

Got their 1st album for xmas (sink or swim) which is also brilliant!!!! A bit rougher round the edges & rawer than 59 sound, also rocks a bit more...... quality band love em. still cant stop listening to 59 sound!!!

Me too!!! I've also ordered Senor & The Queen which is the EP they released between the 2 albums.

Was thinking of getting that too, you'll have to let me know what its like...
