September!

6. Sep. 2008, 9:01

Hey
No time for idle chit-chat this month, it's our busiest time of the year right now and things are mad busy! If you're in London tomorrow (Tuesday) night you should come to the Barfly to see This Town Needs Guns, Pennines, Mimas and Colour. Pretty much the best lineup in the world. Get there early though, it's going to be busy.

04: New Tubelord single details and Radio One session
------------------------------------
After 'Feed Me A Box Of Words' sold out in double-quick time earlier this year, we're delighted to announce details of Tubelord's next limited edition single, the wonderful 'I Am Azerrad'. Due for release on 29th September the single will be available on 7" vinyl (with free CD featuring a bonus track) and digital download. Excitingly (is that a word?), each and every one of the vinyls will come in a hand-drawn sleeve! Below are a couple of images of a few of the painted packages and you can read more about them at www.asktubelord.com.

'I Am Azerrad' can be streamed on Myspace and you can pre-order the 7" right here. It'll be available to purchase from the BSM shop in a couple of weeks, too.

The bands very first Radio One session was aired on Huw Stephens show last week and can still be heard via http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/huwstephens/

05: Pulled Apart By Horses
------------------------------------
On October 27th Big Scary Monsters will be releasing the debut single from noisy macho men, Pulled Apart By Horses! The Leeds mob have been kicking up quite a storm recently with their naked gymnastics of a live show and have already pricked the ears of Radio One, Xfm, Artrocker, Kruger and many more. 'Meat Balloon' will be released on limited edition 7" (with free CD and comic) and digital download.

The band recently destroyed the BBC Introducing stage at Reading and Leeds festival, action from which can now be viewed at the BBC website right here - You can also hear a live recording on Huw Stephens Radio One show, by following the link in the Tubelord section, above.

See www.myspace.com/pulledapartbyhorses to satisfy any remaining aural needs.

06: Blakfish v Tubelord podcast online now
