LET
THEM EAT GAK ON 3rd June 2008
This week stadium electro post-rock shoegaze with:
KITSCH
"Art in pretentious bad taste": that's what kitsch
means and that's what KITSCH does. An extravagant combination
of pop melodies, funky riffs, groovy bass and rocking drums,
blended with the essential elements and soundscapes stolen from
the dance culture makes KITSCH quite different from your typical
favourite pop rock band, yet eventually that's what it's meant
to become!
Influenced by a multitude of sounds including Muse, The Killers,
Bjork,U2, Pearl Jam, Queen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Depeche Mode,
Pink Floyd, and House Music.

"superbly catchy and thunderous tracks..." - Amped

"What marks out Munroe Effect amongst their brothers and
sisters is their ability to have crunching riffs with twisting
melodies, screams working over foundations of solid pop-indie
songwriting, with every juxtaposition and twist sounding absolutely
seamless...." - Push To Fire single review
"blistering stuff!..." - Eddie Temple-Morris XFM
/ i-Tunes Podcast
"Uncompromised, intricate layers of noise that fit together
like a jigsaw..." - Riddler Zine EP review

THE BRIDGEHEADS
The Bridgeheads are a London-based alternative band formed
in 2007 originating from Central Europe (Slovakia).
Their organic sound is a mix of rich guitar textures and a combination
of intricate and linear drumming, woven together with intensely
penetrating vocals. Their songs often deal with personal themes
and the things that aren't so nice about life. dAsK's angst-ridden
and ironic lyrics are brought to life by his unique voice using
all of its elements, including falsetto. "For me sound
is visual, and we as a band are literally drawing our music
as if with a paintbrush ", explains Tomas, who keeps a
tight leash on everything related to the band, from doing his
own artwork to shooting the bands music videos, his attention
to detail ensures the whole aesthetic of the band is true to
them.
Fragile, tense and personable, The Bridgeheads` music is built
in the mould of a long line of bands that
see a beauty where the others can't, you could call it expressionism.

SLEEPING WITH ANTARES
Cosmic melodies attracting and merging to empower an endless
explosion of sound like stars accepting their final days of
light before turning into a supernova.
This is what you have to expect from Sleeping With Antares.The
name just says it all.
Expect to hear spacey effects combined with gentle melodies
resembling a trip through the universe.
Their post rock influences perfectly marry their punk origins
always avoiding stereotypes and staying within the boundaries
of a new sound that brings comfort to your ears.
