Burnley is Babylon

Some musical genres have a very limited shelf-life, the original 70s prog-rock burnt itself out very quickly, disco, punk, IDM, drum and bass, electronica? They’re still trudging along in their own self replicating way but they all suffer from same-old-shit disease.

Other Genres appear to have a vast and distant future that you just know will be around for a long time, decades of untold pleasures, millions of cubic litres of golden musical sap just waiting to be tapped and drained, drained into my earholes like a, like a drain draining into my erm, earholes. (See why I don’t blog very often?)

Anyway, Alternative Rock, that’s what I’m supposed to be talking about. It’s a vast and evergreen pool of golden, erm, pool water music?

Heat Vs Light are an Alternative Rock combo from the mythical town of Burnley, past the village of Bree and somewhere near Mordor. They just farted out two delicious new recordings on their myspace page, ‘The Marathon’ and ‘The Air Tastes of Strange Things’ – both of them make me want to cry all the water out of my body in thanks and praise of their golden, pooly, sap-filled earball-tapping majesty.

Visit them soon at the Heat Vs Light myspace page

And remember where you heard this spine-bending, fart-inducing news first, recent music is food kids, gorge your flaccid hairless bodies on the feast before you, remember, calories are good for you, especially musical ones. Burp.

Tokyo2005 : Free UK Music Downloads

Okay, just for a minute I need to stop banging on about the amazing, awesome free MP3 downloads of new recent music by Foilface. Did we mention Foilface?

This week, I have mostly been listening to some sonic mind treats in the form of Tokyo2005‘s new free uk music downloads. If you don’t listen to anything else this week, then definitely listen to these fine new UK sounds. Tokyo2005 is the sort of emotionally engaging music that will lift your soul and make you think you can do stuff that you clearly can’t, but will enjoy believing that you can for a few dreamy moments of ‘mind MTV’.

There.

So anyway, there’s this ace new Manchester band called Foilface, right, and…

Manchester Musicians Rock!

Most of the time, Foilface are tucked away in our darkened recording studio exploring new ways to turn strange thoughts into sounds. This is as much for the safety of the general public, as it is for the worthy additions to UK music.

However, last Saturday we took our moley eyes out into the real world on a rare Foilface field trip to see the Plastic Gun Alliance at The Witchwood, in Ashton-under-Lyne. And we weren’t disappointed. PGA are surely one of the greatest collections of Manchester musicians ever! As if the music wasn’t enough, the whole show was an eye candy feast of lasers, strobes and amazing VJ work.
