Monday 17th September

A Place To Bury Strangers @ Dingwalls

A Place To Bury Strangers - Mind Control by myblogcliche1

One of the loudest bands I’ve ever seen, A Place to Bury Strangers are a bunch of New Yorkers making teeth-jarringly noisy feedback-driven rock that is one part Jesus and Mary Chain and two parts civil defence alarm.

Thursday 20th September
This Many Boyfriends @ Old Blue Last

This Many Boyfriends by Angular Recording Co

Clattering around like a cross between Belle and Sebastian and the Television Personalities, This Many Boyfriends make an feel-good indie racket that reminds me of my time stomping through the various indie discos of the West Midlands.

Sunday 23rd September
Just A Crush’s Record Affair @ The Shacklewell

SAUNA YOUTH - BONE LAWN by Pines

Combing a record market with a all-day gig, Just A Crush may have stumbled on the formula for the perfect Sunday afternoon. Featuring stalls from DIY labels like Tough Love, Suplex, Gringo and Marshall Teller and live sets from Sauna Youth, Proper Ornaments, Virginia Wing and Omi Palone, expect your overdraft to take a bit of battering.
