Underrated post-rockers Peace Burial At Sea are to split up after tomorrow.

According to the band's website, the Newcastle-based quartet will play what looks to be their last ever gig with 65daysofstatic at Newcastle University Student's Union tomorrow night.

A statement reads:

"Tomorrow night we're playing what will most likely be our last ever gig, it would be lovely if you could make it along. It's with 65daysofstatic, Youthmovies, Tired Irie and is on the 6th November at Newcastle University Student's Union. I think the tickets are about a tenner, but it's worth it as you're not likely to see three bands as good live as 65, Youthmovies and Tired Irie on the same bill again, like, ever.

"We're first on, so get there early. We shall only be playing loud and fast songs, none of this prog nonsense."

The band released their debut album This is Such a Quiet Town on Captains Of Industry way back in 2003 before following it up with their brilliant self-titled record in 2006. If you live near Newcastle, do go along.

:( RIP

The Czarina Catherine EP was great! A shame.


Bad news...

Think I'll have difficulties to find that second album then...


Well

That sucks. Damn good band.


i thought they did last year

:s

if i didn't have a footy match to play tomorrow i'd definitely be at this show


The second album

is still available - contact them on their myspace or try http://www.myspace.com/ghostwrittenuk


..

I finish work at 8.

I doubt even Youthmovies will still be on then. But I am going to try and go, it's sounds like a cracker :)


The second album...

You can still buy either of our two records from our website www.peaceburialatsea.co.uk

However, we've decided being that this is our last gig and all, some sort of special offer is in order. Accordingly, we're going to be selling our second album for just £1. Actually, come to think of it, we could do a Radiohead and sell it for whatever people want to pay. As long as it's more than £1. ;)


Wank.

They were a really good band. :~(


That's a real shame

Both albums are excellent. Never got to see 'em live :o(
