KING OF CONSPIRACY [link]

"All the way from Paris, France, King of Conspiracy is a good band to go and see. (...). It has to be said there is a lot of energy and zest in their performance and it is always nice to see a band give a big-stadium performance regardless of the size of the venue. I can picture them doing exactly the same thing in the basement every weekend, crowd or no crowd. The final song of the set is without doubt the most impressive element, with the guitarist on his knees and using the microphone against his strings to create a very unique effect. The whole set is loud, fast and if you didn't like it, my guess is they probably didn't care! Fair play!" LIVE REVIEW

ANAVRIS [link]

Hailing from the increasingly fertile musical hub that is Glasgow, Scotland - Anavris are a four piece rock outfit with a flamboyant and complex sound.

With the emphasis on dynamics, melody AND muscle, they are quickly developing a reputation as an intrigiung new proposition. With serpentine guitar lines, compelling lyrics and a colourful musical palette they offer up something truly exciting. Indeed the band are totally focused on forging their own path in the musical wilderness.

“What we see as inspiration doesn't come from who's on the front cover of every magazine that week,” laughs frontman Chris Alexander, “It’s the fearless bands that are out there, touring and relentlessly working hard to produce albums/live shows with substance. We love everything from Oceansize, Biffy Clyro, Reuben, Fall of Troy, At The Drive In, Brand New, Aereogramme, Muse, Mars Volta…”

Indeed the band have already hit the road with like minded acts such as Hell is for Heroes, Brigade and Exit Ten.

With every band member contributing vocals and lyrics Anavris are a unified collective.

CHURCH OF THE DRIVE THRU ELVIS [link]

Church of the Drive Thru Elvis sound like the B52's playing Jenga with the Doors. At Scott Walker's house. Well, while the simile might not hold up to close scrutiny, these guys sure do. The jury's still out on whether they fit into a specific genre, but I'm guessing you'll be all shook up about them.

They formed in a disused hotel and were promptly kicked out by Cat Stevens for just being too damn rock 'n' roll (or possibly due to noise pollution legislation, we're not quite sure). Either way, once you've seen them pump it up, they'll be always on your mind.
