      > BLACK MOTH
      Where else could such a dark and sinister creature creep from its cocoon and unleash such evil riffing but the current home of new heavy avant rock, Leeds.
      Much acclaimed and highly rocked up garage combo The Bacchae halted proceedingsl on their 3 chord approach in 2010 to announce the following ...
      For the past 6 months we've been working on lots of new material which we're extremely excited about. It's darker, it's heavier and it comes with a massive pair of gothic balls. We've decided to mark this turning point by relaunching as an entirely new band. We emerge translucent skinned and bleary-eyed from our cocoon as BLACK MOTH.
      Now a fully formed quartet of monstrous guitar riffs alongside Deep Purple Hammond Organ mangling and Thunderous acid-rock tendencies The Moth have released a debut 7" single
      "The Articulate Dead / Blind Faith"
      And are in London to cause noise unrest. I do believe they will succeed.

      > XM3A
      Spreading the heavy word throughout 2010, XM3a have just delivered their debut public outing of their brand of doom-a-delic last month releasing 12" vinyl only single
      "Bad Robot Man" on New Heavy Sounds Records

      'Bad Robot Man' follows on from XM3a's inclusion on the scene defining 'The New Heavy Sounds Vol 1' compilation album on which they provided the dark, doomy, and brooding eight minute slow-core epic 'Wolves' alongside the likes of Chickenhawk, Pulled Apart By Horses, Rolo Tomassi, and Turbowolf. This time the band doom the guitar riffs up several notches, drag the bpm up to belly churning 92, over-load the acid drenched psyche/noise work-out, and frontman Tom delivers an automaton's twisted tale of (not-so) future technology wars of an impending dystopian society to beware of.
      5 Star Single of The Month in Artrocker Magazine December 2010
      "9 minutes worth of gasoline coated riffs, bursts of noise, ridiculous keyboard solos, duelling lead guitars, call and response vocals, phaser effects and a massive theatrical climax- a chop smackingly guilty pleasure"

      > LASERS FROM ATLANTIS
      Either hailing from London or outer space, or perhaps close to planet Roky Erikson, The Lasers have been freaking out the London Psyche and heavy rock scene for the last 12 months 'coat-tailing' the mighty Bo-Ningen and most certainly in line for their 'spaced-out acid-rock crown'.
      Lasers from Atlantis drops in with a blast of pure psychedelic energy, huge drums, cymbals and throbbing bass drive fuzzed out guitar and wailing vocals to complete aural assault. Let the underwater battle commence.
      A quantum leaping trip to a blissfull Nirvana with oozing waves of transcendental, cosmic, psychedelic tones and tranquilizing melodies juxtaposed with heavy, droning lightning-bolts that have been beamed from the ether for your floating in space pleasure.
      An album due out this year on Tapemancy to follow their split EP with Dreamcolour - their future is undoubtedly spaced.


      DJs Stu Plimsoles + Igor Volk
