Black Thursday
9th September 2010
Flow Bar, Hamilton
$5 Door Sales. From 8PM
Black Thursday is a series of events organised by The Hamilton Live Music Trust on the 2nd Thursday of each month and will feature 3 of the finest indie bands around.
For the 5th event we are pleased to announce the following line up:
The Situations
The Situations are heading to Hamilton for Black Thursday having often shared the stage with Shaft, The Coolies, The Transistors and The Quick and the Dead in Auckland.
The Situations can heard right now on Contact FM & Community Radio. Tune in to hear exclusive tracks from the bands Spanish-only 7 release (Munster Records).
They toured Europe in 2007, playing legendary clubs such as Vera in Groningen, NL, and opened for The White Stripes in Australia.
The Situations draw many a comparison, ranging from The Fall to The Modern Lovers, but the term Garage Rock seems to fit well..
Penelope The
The Hamilton rock powerhouse formally known as Beatrix.
With a bad ass sound thats loud enough to make your mum cry, influenced by The Raconteurs and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs to name a few.
Fronted by Emerald Rose with her haunting voice and in your face guitar playing, backed by the tight rhythm section of Jarred Dobbs on drums and Stephen Daniell (aka Stevie D) on bass. With catchy riffs and rhythms that will make you think, there is enough in their set to satisfy the soul of any lover of rock music.
Nightmares
Nightmares are exponents of the short and sharp end of the grindcore scene. Like their music, there is no messing around with these guys. Only two years in and the have already released two eps and are working on their debut full-length album, which will be out soon.
