Men Diamler Double Album Launch
-
Fri 8 February 2008 // 19:00
+ Pekko Kappi + Ice Bird Spiral + Cath & Phil Tyler
Album Launch Party with DJs and Film Nuggets
(Fri 8th / 7pm (early doors!) / £6 adv)
Men Diamler launches not one but two albums into the world with this showcase event featuring THREE very special guests from far flung corners of the world. 'Sea Shanties For The Far Inland' on Dulcet Thud and 'Lon Chaney Vs. Dandelion Batman'… a fucking amazing limited CD-R. The man will play two shows: one early bird acoustic one show and one late night, beautifully ravaged show.
He is a young man with a cult reputation who will not be tamed, reconfiguring a English/Welsh soul music through woozy operatics and wild and weird songs. Footstompin' blues, two string serenades, backwoods drinking hollers, horse play and pagan folk all get exorcised. Psychosis never sounded this good and people clap.
Joining him will be three acts who exhibit different sides of the wild. Pekko Kappi, the highly recommended Finnish musician and member of Paivansade who makes stunning songs from a minimal set-up; intergalactic sound shapes from Ice Bird Spiral; plus, adding another dimension to the evening, Cath & Phil Tyler, a married couple of folk singers from North East England playing whistles, banjo and guitar.
