“Atmospheric and somewhat dramatic, this British band fills out the Britpop sound. Yes, they sound a little like early Radiohead, maybe Doves, but there’s a heavier, moodier element.” (Iceland Airwaves)

“For such a determined band of musical purists, the future is clearly going to be polarised. Call To Mind will either remain a cultish, underground concern, or will inspire a Mogwai-esque religious devotion. Whichever way it goes though, it’s refreshing to see that bands like Call To Mind still have the bravery and patience to offer up such restrained and thoughtful music in a climate where the medium is becoming defined by its immediacy and disposability.” (The Fly)

“Sonically mind-blowing” (Tim Burgess)

CALL TO MIND MYSPACE

A brand new bang for Sneaky’s, this will be MILKED’s first night with us, with more to come…

Andrew Vincent celebrates the release of his new album ‘Rotten Pear’ with his first tour of the UK.

“Like good old-fashioned Canadian handicraft—handmade, heartfelt and even naive—Andrew Vincent’s songs are pure heart-on-sleeve nuggets that always manage to nestle their way into the cozy corners of our minds. His knack for churning out memorable melodies and turns of phrase never ceases to amaze, and here on his fifth album Rotten Pear, AV offers up some of his most painfully honest slices of song to date. ”

>> LACH ON MYSPACE <<

“Lach is the mastermind of Antifolk, like a Lower East Side rendezvous of Bob Dylan and Patti Smith. Like black snow, stalled subway cars and random violence, Lach is a Manhattan institution.”- NY Times
“Lach is so what the East Village used to be all about. He’s a gruff?and-tough punk turned poet with a heart o’gold singing jangly, funny, pop?punk songs.”-TimeoutNY

“Think battered acoustic thrashings, think sarky, smart-mouthed wit and wisdom but most importantly think Lach. Lach is rarely less than a face-ache funny, beat-punk-unplugged joy, and likely to send you home with several favourite new songs”- The Guardian UK

“Lach is a star! -NME

“A wholly enjoyable voyage into a strange and brilliant musical mind!”- Billboard

“NYC’s living legend, riotously catchy!”-Timeout London

“Speed assaults and whimsy. Recommended!”-Uncut

“4 Stars! Splendid! Best of it’s kind!”- Mojo

“Genius”-Penthouse

House, electro and techno fried to perfection.

This quarterly night has been a big bang, and this is the last one of their regular dates.

FREE ENTRY 11pm – 3am

“Filthy duo’s long-awaited debut brings salacious and mesmerising thrills aplenty… a sound akin to Frankenstein’s monster getting his thousand-volt wakeup call… Detuned Sabbath riffs pile relentlessly over glitching screams reminiscent of a scrambles SOS call from a plummeting aeroplane… and that’s just the first 30 seconds.” - 9/10 – NME

Comanechi have for four years been amongst underground London’s most terrifyingly excellent acts. Astounding drummer/singer Akiko Matsuura has finally found time to commit to tape their opus ‘Crime Of Love’, in between bouts as frontwoman for PRE and drummer for The Big Pink.

They’ve won fans among the most talented cognescenti, having played shows with Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Gossip (whose awesome sticksmith Hannah Blilie features on the album).

Divorce are the greatest mostly-female hardcore band of all time, or at the very least the most astounding band in Glasgow right now.

Your Loyal Subjects a two pieces of frenetic proto-thrash that could topple walls with a look.
