This months Local bands night plays hosts two three mightily contrasting bands in the form of This Sun No More, The Control and the return of Majika.
This Sun No More from Stoke operate in the sphere of the experimental and the lengthy subverting of sound through the journeys of metaphor and irony. Or...something like that. They make noise and they like it.
Also from Stoke and Stone we have The Control, a young band that mix up angular post-punk sounds with nagging melodies and tight guitar work, really worth catching. "bursting, uninhibited confidence and throbbing energy." The Control have recieved airplay on BBC 6 Music by Tom Robinson.
And finally, the welcome renaissance of Majika as a two piece, incorparating technical wizardry to fill out their sounds with loop stations and FX pedals alike.
In the bar along with the dj's spinning cool and groovy music will be Bad Apple playing the blues on his harp accompanied by Pete .44 Pistol on guitar, Michael James Butler a talented singer-songwriter from Birmingham currently studying at Staffs Uni and Stafford's own Neil Pennington now known under the stage moniker of 'Penners' also singing his self 'penned' heart felt songs.
