It's actually, maybe, my favourite record ever. Perhaps. God damn this news has actually got my fingers shaking as I type...

Isis - if you don't know 'bout 'em you've no reason to point your eyes at this article - are to perform their masterpiece Oceanic as part of ATP's Don't Look Back season.

The gig takes place at London's Koko venue on 23rd July. Tickets are fifteen quid from the venue's website (or call 0870 145 1115). We reported on other shows in the series here (acts announced since then include Nightmares On Wax and Teenage Fanclub), and further information is almost certainly available from ATP.

So, like buy already.

DiScuss: I can't... actually.. believe it.

isis have got kind of dull recently, this should be an amazing show but the last album lacked something(and it sounded like fear factory in places. urgh)
Im waiting for Kayo dot or Across tundras to come over here. Theyre ace.
