Cue literal OMG-ing among the DiS staffers...

Part Chimp are to again share a slab o' wax with their London buddies Todd, only this time on a heavy seven-inch.

The pair recently featured on this monstrous ten-inch, but the forthcoming release sees them ditch their then touring companions for a double-sided disc of PURE NOISE.

In the words of the label behind this wonderfully nasty thang, Noisestar...

"The split 7" that had to happen. This record has been in the making for sometime. Todd provide some of the filthiest noise terror ever to grace a slab of vinyl - 'deep grief one to four' - While Part Chimp chuck and drone through a Hawkwind cover - 'The Watcher' - apparently Lemmy's favorite back in the day..."

We. Are. Excited.

The single's out on September 11, and advance copies can be ordered by clicking here.

Do it.


Yowzer.


Ace-o.


Todd

are probably the worst live band I've ever seen. Utterly embarassing when they supported Les Savy Fav a couple of years back. Saw them a few months later at the Buffalo Bar and the singer preceded the set by saying, "we're going to sound fucking shit tonight! We're going to sound fucking shit tonight." He was right.

Conversely Part Chimp are one of the best live bands around.


you are WRONG

so there.
Todd make me smile.
Then run for cover.


TODD rule

The new album is far more insane than Purity Pledge and I love it!


Todd

seriously fucking terrified me when I saw them. Man berating crowd, throwing himself at scared girls, chucking drinks at everyone? Them? Right?

Part Chimp are my favourite ever live band, I think. They have totally blown me away too many times.


Todd

Ahhh, come on now. Terrified you? Those guys/girl are some of the nicest people I've ever met. There's nothing wrong with a little dramatisation, for fuck sake, it is a live performance in case you didn't notice. That guy has never hurt or intended to hurt anyone and there is no way he ever would. Get a backbone you sad tosser.


OMG!


thank fuck

it's not THAT sort of split! hurrah! though do the reformed liagment have plans to record at all I wonder?


Todd are great live

...or at least they were when I saw them at ATP a couple of years back.

Totally stunning way to start my ATP - Todd are a little wonder. Part Chimp I like but are rather less exciting in my book.
Still quality though, but my X goes against Todd....


just logged in from abroad

to say YESSS

*orders the shit out of that*


yup yup!

very good!! part chimp incredible live as are Todd! all lovely guys too.
perfection!
