Following on from last month's inaugral DiS night which featured the likes of Computerman, redcarsgofaster, From The Shards Of Comets! and Do Me Bad Things, Drowned In Sound is pleased to announce its next two nights in the fair city of Nottingham.
The first one takes place on Friday 27th January in conjunction with the Hot Renault Traffic club (more info HERE) and features:-
AGENT BLUE - "...with enough energy to support a small power station and attitude to sicken even a Frenchman, we can only blink in strobe-lit wonder at what can only be The Best Band From Stoke Ever" (Drowned In Sound)

LOVE ENDS DISASTER! - "Within the year this band will be massive, and we've not been wrong before" (Rough Trade)

POEM ROCKET - MBV/Stooges/Coachwhips influenced noisepop from the heart of the East Midlands.

Been following Love ends disaster! for a couple of years now. I have their E.P. ‘Stories for the dislocated’; it's good. Check them out.
Roger.
new led ep
out at the end of the month
and its a fucking cracker.......
Didn't
they get dropped?? I'm from Stoke and there is a real good band shortage. I don't get "baggy" either. The scene here conists of Pete Docherty playin three songs in the underground every fortnight then runnin out with the punters' money...that said I wish agent blue all the luck in the world. I kinda think the buzz around them's gone though. I know label politics delayed the album etc, but it really has been a long time comin.
?
You mean Agent Blue, yeah? Don't think LED have been.
Agent Blue were on Universal or something crazy weren't they?
Yo, black...is the new LED EP on Denial?
