A quick Organ preview or update or parish notice or whatever you want to call it, the ArcTanGent people just said; “Check it out, we’ve just added Canadian Post-Rock legends, Godspeed You! Black Emperor as a final headliner, on a European exclusive no less. They headline the Thursday and we couldn’t be more excited to have them back! We’ve also squeezed in Snooze, which we’re equally, incredibly excited to have appearing for the first time.”
The festival bill is already ridiculously packed, almost impossible to pick out a highlight although you do have Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Slift, the mighty KayoDot and Ni on the bill, oh and Melvins and AK/DK and it could maybe do with just a few more females on there maybe? Get Pili Coït to add a dimension or two. It happens at Fernhill Farm just outside Bristol in August, here’s the full bill and the link and well, there’s a slice or two of music under the flyer or poster or whatever it is…
There is plenty of Sleepytime to explore on the Organ pages of course, here’s the most recent album review – ORGAN THING: Sleepytime Gorilla Museum’s new album reviewed. This gift is not like other gifts, this is a glorious return, more coherent maybe, a complex revivification indeed…
Here’s the latest KayoDot release – ORGAN THING: Every Rock, Every Half-Truth Under Reason is the title of the new Kayo Dot album, hear a first taste here and yes, of course it is going to be special and judging by this first taste…
And something off the new Snooze album…
Meanwhile, did you catch last weekend’s Other Rock Show? ORGAN THING: Listen back to last weekend’s Other Rock Show with Koenjihyakkei, Ni, Cats and Cats and Cats, Alex Paxton, Upsilon Acrux and more…
