Wed 14th The Luminaire presents UNGDOMSKULEN + Real Feal
Supported by
Doors 7.30 “This terrific trio from Bergen, Norway favour trebly, jazz-toned guitar skronk, syncopated bass and walloping, post-hardcore drums, but separate out each sound, then sharpen and polish them until the finished combination threatens to put your eye out. Fans of Sonic Youth, Battles, Fugazi, Liars and very possibly The Rapture should get down to one of these shows.” - TimeOut "Ungdomskulen have produced the kind of record that leaves everything else floored in its wake. Bloody brilliant.” - 9/10 Rocksound ”As reckless, relentless and original as Sonic Youth” - 7/10 NME ”Terrifyingly taut” - Uncut ”Their sprawling, strangely funk-damaged rock weaves divergent musical strands into an epic whole...A far less daunting proposition than its ambitious scope might suggest” - KKKK, Kerrang! "Like a furious Minutemen toiling at their own version of prog, each song stretched till breaking point, with gut-kick precision. There's a mountain of fun sprinkled on top and it's all over way too soon." - Plan B Real Feal, Bill from Infants' new maximalist project featuring Luca Zoo Franzoni on drums, is a world away from his other band's Ex-Models / Boredoms scronk. This is raw rock that has drawn comparisons to Nirvana and Pavement. (Drowned in Sound) |
