xx Teens are one of the best bands in London. They head out on the road this winter so all youse in the regions can see for yourself. Get me?
The band have finished recording their debut album, which should be out in January through Mute.
Before that, they'll play the following shows as temperatures plummet, taking my good will with them:
September
7 Isle of Wight Bestival
21 Milan Parco Sempione
22 Nottingham Stealth
25 Bristol Thekla Social *
26 Leeds The Cockpit *
27 London The Scala *
October
5 Manchester Legends
16 London The Amersham Arms
22 Nottingham All Ages Festival
26 London ULU (14+ show)
November
3 Amsterdam Club Paradiso
5 London the End
8 Middlesbrough The Empire
9 Liverpool Korova
16 Brighton Audio
17 Southampton The Joiners
24 Cambridge Barfly
* = supporting Simian Mobile Disco live
That'll be all.
What?
So no-one comes to Birmingham anymore?
Last time they played in Brum..
For some odd reason they played the Barfly, which would give anyone good cause not to come back..
5th November
is a monday, so presumbably they're playing Durrr. That sounds like an excellent night.
I seriously doubt if anyone within a mile radius of Durr
within a mile radius of Durr hasn't seen xx Teens more times than they can count...
because
apparently everyone who goes to Durr is so cool and ahead of the scene.
THE CHINEEEESSSSSSSSEEEEEE ARE CUMMIN'
Southampton? Fuck yeh :)
The Name
I was worried a while back that I had accidentally lead to their name change from Xerox teens. I worked for them, and was on this very site looking at info on them when my boss saw it, and called his boss about possible copywrite violations.
I hope it wasn't me.
The Southampton gig
is actually at unit 22, i think. we're djing too (ejector seat). cannot wait, they were awesome when we booked them earlier in the year.
