WE SMOKE FAGS
We Smoke Fags (previously dubbed The
Belmont Fantastics) are an English trio, comin’ straight outta London. The
categorize themselves as “Electro / Punk / Indie†but I’d just call it a modern
take on Post Punk. They came on the radar in 2006, but they’ve found their way
on my playlist again a lot lately and I’m digging ‘em. If I had the chance,
they’re a band I’d mos. def. see live. They seem to play in their neck of the
woods all the time. (www.missingtoof.com)
Student Launch Night 8th May with Vice Band
BLACK LIPS
While still teenagers, they formed in
2000 after guitarist Cole Alexander and bassist Jared Swilley left the
Renegades, and guitarist Ben Eberbaugh left the Reruns. Drummer Joe Bradley
joined a few months later. They released their first 7" in late 2001/early 2002
on their own Die Slaughterhauslabel.
The Black Lips have a reputation for
crazy live shows that have included vomiting, urinating, nudity, band members
kissing, fireworks, and a chicken. They have slowly built a fanbase that
appreciates their energy and style that is a rough mishmash of blues, rock, doo-wop,
country, and punk.
They gained national attention in 2006 with features in Spin and Rolling Stone
magazines. The band got exposure in the New York Times for being the hardest
working band during the 2007 South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas,
in which they played a dozen shows over a three-day period.
In September 2007 their most recent album entitled "Good Bad Not Evil" was
released. The Black Lips made their American national television debut in
October 2007 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and played 'O Katrina'.
