Savaging Spires + Shinamo Moki + The Wharves + Mooncreatures - 08/01/14 - Old Blue Last - Free


Happy New Year jabronis! We're so, so, so excited for 2014 - we've got some excellent shows lined up - the first of which being this one! Here's some more info about the bands - if you like what you hear, and are free next Wednesday - come down, say 'hi!!', buy a t-shirt, drink some beer, have a great time.

Savaging Spires are an improvisational pop band who record live to tape, and quite often to just cassette. Gathering around a single microphone, their songs are often elongated passages, fragments of potential songs that despite their fragile, bordering-on-the-edge-of-collapse approach, seem to create a force of sound that’s impossible to not be overwhelmed by.

Savaging Spires might not always be an easy listen, especially for a band built around simplicity of melody, and complexity of texture but are one of the most rewarding of sonic experiences.’ – Critical Heights


‘Shinamo Moki are electronic duo Auryn Tate Waring & Felix Treadwell.Originating from the south coast of England & combining their passion of 90’s Anime, Japanese contemporary art, nature & Eastern architecture with sparse synths & splintering, textural percussions to form a core to their sound’ – LastFM


The Wharves are ‘a three-piece whose beef comes from thick bass twangs offset against dramatic vocals fit for a grander setting than your iPod and spooky echoes…appropriate [for] Halloween’ SEXBEAT


'Moncreatures play epic and atmospheric reverb pop that gets lost somewhere between Low, Cocteau Twins and the more delicate moments of Explosions in the Sky. Hushed vocals are hidden beneath the icy guitar melodies and gentle drums patterns' - Brixton Buzz
