Sheer Mag, TERRY and TV Crime this Thursday in London!

 
Morning all!
 
This Thursday Upset The Rhythm is heading to the Islington Assembly Hall for the concert of the summer! We have Philadelphia power pop magnates Sheer Mag performing along with Terry from Melbourne (concluding their grand tour of Europe), plus top Nottingham garage punks TV Crime will open the show.
 
Tickets cost £10 and are available in advance at the link below or on the door from 7pm. July is about to get even hotter, hope you can join us for the party! Full details follow on below.
 
Since we last communed, we’ve also been lucky enough to confirm a new show for colossal free-punk practitioners Protomartyr.
 
This will take place on November 14th at The Dome in Tufnell Park. Hot on the heels of their new album for Domino entitled ‘Relatives In Descent’ out the end of September. The band will be joined by Sauna Youth and Bomber Jackets on stage, now that’s what I call a show!
 
Check our listings section for ticket details, certainly worth buying one in advance.
 
 
 
I’ll leave you pleasantly with something to listen to this morning, a soundtrack to this mailing list and the rising day if you will. The enigmatic Robert Sotelo has just unveiled the magnificent ‘Let’s Transcend’ from his debut record ‘Cusp’ out this September on Upset The Rhythm, here’s the video!
 
If you enjoy songs built up from ambitious layers of instrumentation into miniature psych pop overtures then this is for you, also recommended if you highly rate dogs paddling in water and dancing.

SHEER MAG begins like so many other celebrated rock 'n roll bands of yore: with two brothers. Following in the tradition of The Bee Gees, Oasis and The Allman Brothers, the brothers Seely conspired to create a rock 'n roll band to end all rock bands. The sheer magnitude of the endeavor required the recruitment of a daring drummer, a fearless lyricist and a diva who could party good AND write the rent check. With the pantheon assembled, MAG quickly recorded and released their debut 7" to cosmic acclaim. The band now stands poised on the brink of world domination or complete destruction. Is it Punk? Is it Rock 'n Roll? We'll leave that to the music 'critics.' But it is punk.
 
TERRY is getting ready, combing his hair, buttoning his jacket, turning the key in the door. "I'm doing fine," sings Terry out loud, he knows. Divide him into four and you get Al Montfort (UV Race, Total Control, Dick Diver etc.), Amy Hill (Constant Mongrel, School Of Radiant Living), Xanthe Waite (Primo, Mick Harvey Band) and Zephyr Pavey (Eastlink, Total Control, Russell Street Bombings). Inevitably, Terry likes to make a noise. Drums, guitars and all his voices come into play, making a solid raft for Terry's inner musings to navigate the languid rapids. This all unravels at its own pace, sometimes drifting into glam pop and country backwaters, always conducting a conversation with the commonplace. Love is a highway, but you're not likely to find Terry there anymore. He's on the plane. Terry saw the light, he put on his sunhat and is heading to Europe. Debut album, 'Terry HQ' was released last year by Upset The Rhythm, brand new album ‘Remember Terry’ is due out June 30th.
 
TV CRIME are a new garage punk / power pop band from Nottingham who come fully formed. Their debut single 'Hooligans' (out of Satic Shock) is a total stomper of a power pop song that starts like a classic Good Vibrations Records 7" with The Moondogs-esque guitar work and the energy of 90's legends New Bomb Turks or Gaunt. Flip 'Wild One' is another pounder but with a more rock 'n' roll twist.
 
 
 
Thanks as always for your time, catch you on Thursday!
