Interesting Noises

When you've just released your fourth album, your fourth EP and your drummer has left for the second time, you should probably take it easy for a while. Not BRMC. They saw it as a perfect time to release an instrumental noise rock album.



The Effects of 333 is just that. Apparently having been in the works for years, written whilst they were touring for the past few years what better time to release it than now. And when I say release it, I of course mean they released it themselves without their record label. What's cooler than that? I don't think anyone really noticed it's release. And it's all for the wonderful price of €6. Now if only they had released it on vinyl (or even tape), then it'd be one of the indiest albums of all time. Also, isn't that one of the coolest covers you've ever seen?

The Future of the Left

Noise rock... Now there's an interesting genre, loosely described as "when avant-garde acid jazz got angry". Now, I've never been to a noise rock gig, but it sounds like a lot of fun. t was a genre created in the 80's, sort of like me but these guys are so indie, they won't even play in key or use normal song wrtiningness.



And speaking of noise rock, The Future of the Left will be playing Whelan's on the 14th and the pretentious indie boys will be going. Tickets are only €15.. You know it's indie when tickets cost that little (it also leaves plenty of money for beer).

And thanks to Mr. Tim Morris awesome indie photographer for the super awesome picture.
