WETDOG
Precious dittys clatterpulted into the audience by a mix of wonky-machinegun twang and clatter-chatterbox- wallop-pop toons and then stirred together with doom-laden bass and nice jangley German drumming... 3 ice-cool females¦Harmonies to die for¦if only all bands rattled like this - Everett True.

CAPTAIN BLOOD BLOOD & THE SEA DOGS
¦Will bring to Leeds unsettling and darkly surreal tales from their battered lime-cliff harbour-town resort with sinister waltzing, cheeky baseball cap bass and twangy tuneful twists. If Sergio Leone had made nautical-themed westerns it would sound a bit like this. Also like Jennifer Gentle but with more salt and sand.

PRIVATE TROUSERS
Snaggle-toofed colossal clunk punk with homemade instruments and Casios combining in an inexorable bric-a-brac vs radio shack battle conjuring the beastie boys and Danielson Famile to commentate and rant with London accents.
