New music webzine SoundsXP.com brings a ferocious bunch of bands to The Windmill, watch out for their vicious tongues! I, LUDICROUS http://www.myspace.com/iludicrous I, Ludicrous is a two piece popular music ensemble formed in London in 1986 by John Procter and Will Hung. John and Will had become confederates whilst working for Finsbury Data Services filling the dull days of clerking by amusing each other with jokes, anecdotes, fall lyrics and nasty comments about their colleagues. A homemade 4 track cassette somehow found its way into the mits of Mark E Smith who - without telling them - promptly booked them to support The Fall at a top London venue. The band achieved immortality the following year when their seminal release ‘Preposterous Tales’ reached the dizzy heights of number 11 in John Peel's Festive 50. In February of this year they released a marvellous 5 track EP; on that EP was a song called The Ruby Wax Song. Ruby Wax heard this song and made this exclamation on her blog: “I can’t believe that my whole life has been summed up in a song!!” Their best-of entitled ’20 Years In Show Business’ is out now on Sanctuary Recordings. TITS OF DEATH http://www.myspace.com/titsofdeath Tits of Death is a ten-breasted rock machine with sky scraper heels. Think Russ Muyer Vs The Terminator. "It's not every day you see a band that sends you home with ringing ears at 1am to thrash at Marc Bolan numbers on your unplugged Strat, feeling every bit the Iggy Pop rock monster ya just know ya are on the inside. Hell, it's not every band that have the capacity to bring out that part of you that wants to throw on an evening gown and join them onstage to spit fire through a rendition of teenage kicks..." Harmony Central “The Shangri Las meets Slayer” – Time Out SHIMMY RIVERS AND AND CANAL http://www.myspace.com/shimmyriversananacanal Shimmy Rivers and and Canal have been making Londoner’s pulses racing faster and faster every time they play. Their bassist dresses like a bear and they produce more energy than a breakers yard on fire. Their last single on White Heat was single of the month in Plan B. THE CREEPING NOBODIES http://www.myspace.com/thecreepingnobodies The Canadian based band The Creeping Nobodies are over here on tour and we’re very pleased they’re playing a gig with us! They listen to Electrelane, Oneida, Damo Suzuki and The Fall amongst others and are very good indeed. SoundsXP DJs |

However much I love you lot (apart from Bovine who's a knob) - it's at the Windmill and therefore too much of a pain in the arse to get to. Hope it goes well. |

The kRaZy Canucks who were first on the bill twice fused the entire building... Good night though - didn't get home till 1am courtesy of my chauffeur, Anarchy, so God* knows what time the 'tasched one managed to stroll in. Shocking hangover today but not surprising as I'd had 3 pints already by 5.30. No idea what the final count was. How was your gig, Tom? * My God is Ayatollah Dawkins. |

It went very well thanks. No sound man due to an emergency he had but two members of bands playing stepped in. The Arndales reminded me of Fonda 500 whilst Pete Green, who I see is playing Vodka V's gig on 5th November, was as great and as witty as ever. Pocketbooks were superb. No longer a twee shambles we used to see but a fully polished outfit on top of their indie pop game. Sarandon certainly killed twee pop last night being very loud. Sadly we ran late because of the sound man problems so I had to head off to the commuter belt before they finished. A great night. A shame we clashed so lets check the diary next time. Pics are by the way. |
