✚ Chapter 24 ✚

New single 'Spindle' / '4454' is Art Rocker's single of the month.

Chapter 24 release two gems of unclassifiable brilliance - double a-side 'spindle' and '4454', on odd box records - so say Rough Trade Shops. They go on to say they sound like a sexy frankenstein modelled from the various limbs of bow wow wow, ramones and hawkwind members. '4454' manages to combine stoner-doom, erase errata erraticness, bush tetras-style funk and sleater kinney-esque scuzz, resulting in an anthem for non-generic music fans.

Who are we to argue? They last played for Odd Box back at our Weekender in May 2011. They were one of THE bands of the weekend.

✚ Diaphragm Failure ✚

Be afraid. Diaphragm Failure are newcomers to Which Way Is Up! and they make a frightening racket. Live I've been told to expect the unexpected. I like that.

"6 piece London based improv circus/hole band. A new breed of performing arts, fearless, fun, slightly disturbing, entertaining, inspiring, dancey, trancey, punky and psychedelic. Basically the sound of 2020' BBC Musique
