They're at sweatbox-central The Wheatsheaf in Oxford on Friday with The Murder of Rosa Luxembourg side-proj Diago Garcia.

Tell your Mum's friends.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

Good God damnit, we've (The Exploits Of Elaine) just been asked if we can play on Friday as well. And we can't. Arsefuckbollockstoss.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

damn. I wish the murder of.. were playing. I missed them last time.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

wat do they sound like? never heard of them

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

the ed fitz are mathematical, intense, intriguing and energetic oxford-based almost post-rock

the murder of rosa luxembourg used to be hugely mathematical screamo types with a penchant for obscenely complex guitar riffs that worked ludicrously well with just a hint of post-rock action. with their new 7" they've gone more into the post-rock side of things and it's frankly fantastic.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

yes very good band edmund fitz., download cans of rainwater on dis. murder of are also brillianty!

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

have they done an album? the only thing i know by them is the split 7" w/ YMSS.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

I need to see the murder of... again. Everyones in love... was implausably good.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

We have an MP3 here on the site of 'Cans Of Rainwater' which is one of their older tracks.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

sounds like some good shit...where can i find stuff? anything on their site?

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

Just the MP3 we have here is also on their site. If you check out the Vacuous Pop site they have info on there.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald


i know they should be releasing an e.p. soon and a split 12" on noisestar w/ the awesome Bilge Pump. cracking.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

the track on the YMSS split by the edmund fitzgerald is a bit weedy- not recorded with anything close to the energy that they achieve live- i'd recommend the track of theirs on the silverrocket(.org) compilation- theres another 49 bands on there too.

Re: The Edmund Fitzgerald

Heh heh I'd recommend everyone buy that too.

But seriously, the song they sent us is amazing. I don't know how they get their timings right. I always imagined they were wired up at the head to each other, of course having seen them live about a hundred times and not catching them plugging themselves in I doubt that's right, but have yet to come up with an alternative theory. Brain slugs?

Sorry for plugging, but www.silverrocket.org if you want a cd with 50 bands on (including Ed fitz, Joeyfat, Charlottefield etc etc) for £7 all in.
