APR - HERZOGA
updates and Fox Fest and... “Ladies, gents, misfits and the crimnally insane,
HERZOGA have now added another track from the Maida Vale session we did
for radio 1's BBC Introducing weekend not so long ago. The track in question
is 'Mega Savant' and joins the audio hip of 'swetmores' on our wonderous
myspace profile. Both tracks available for your aural pleasure! Our current
double a side single 'Nice Car / Blood School' is out on amazing DIY label,
'We Like Danger!' records and can be obtained from this very profile or
by visiting www.welikedanger.com.
On this very single you'll be the very proud owner of 3 wrongpop noise
action tracks, and a music video (complete with dance routine choreographed
by our very own drummer, mark) for 3 shiny gold nuggets and postage
+ packaging. Next Friday, May 2nd we play at the Glebe, Stoke On Trent
for one of the amazing Wrongpop nights, followed by a slot on 'foxfest'
a weekend of gigs at the Fox and Firkin, Lewisham, Londinium. We shall
be found onstage at the time of 5.30pm on Sunday May 4th making all sorts
of noises and shapes of sorts! - www.myspace.com/herzogaband
25th
APR - Oakland's finest EVERYTHING MUST GO
have an album ready to go, they've called it Sonic Pornography and the
no doubt beautiful thing is out on Calendar
Of Death - "45 minutes of punk, sex and fury including the hit single
I hate Music" so it says here, was it a hit? Did we miss out on that? They
claimed to have lost most of the stock in a drug bust in Holland and some
kind of Airport fight in San Francisco - we stil lhave a few of those 'hit'
singles here though, and they do so rule, I love 'em like my own pet dog,
yeah I know we haven't got a pet dog, but if we did we wouldn't call it
Jake and we'd keep fireworks well out of the way - singers, dogs, bands,
fireworks, you know how it is...

15th
APR - I'm going to repeat myself here, but first before I start shouting,
big thanks to everyone who made it to the PURE
REASON REVOLUTION return last Saturday, told
them the venue wasn't big enough! Nice to meet some of you while we were
there on the merch desk, more PRR news very soon, wheels are in motion
now and although our single is just a one off, we'll keep you in the loop
for a bit here. Now then....
Right
then, tomorrow night, in a conspiracy plagued place where the season is
already over, TO THE BONES
will be firing up a beautiful shit storm of flying noise and how many times
do we need to tell you about these exciting new bands buzzing right under
your noses? All the way from the North West edges of Manchester and playing
in Highbury tomorrow, that's Wednesday 16th at the Buffalo Bar in London
(right outside Highbury and Islington tube, easier to spot that a desperate
punch in to the back of the net). See this band! We're talking Motorhead
for Liars fans, we're talking full on alternative adrenaline fueled nasty
rock like we hardly ever get in these insipid indie pop polite pretty boy
emo conforming times. On stage some where in the middle of the bill around
9.00pm and kicking up merry hell, there will be no time to breathe. Like
I already repeated (repeated because the man was damn well right) Bradford
from the mighty Deerhunter thinks they sound like Flipper! He's a fan,
he's right, he insisted To The Bones play with Deerhunter last time
they were here - he can be bothered, where the hell are you London!!! hE'S
RIGHT!! They have that buzz and feel of the legendary Flipper only you're
gonna sit at home with a stick up yer bum waiting for permission from the
NME or Kerrang or XFM or the bleedin Zipper or something - come on, get
out of your armchair, put down that fishing rod, throw your computer out
of the window, stop downloading your life and get down the front, there
ain't no damn point in this Organ thing if you can't be bothered to get
excited about bands like To The Bones... this is our fuel... - www.myspace.com/tothebones

| 14th
APR - TO THE BONES in
London this Wednesday then, word is spreading, word does when there’s something
real out there. I see John Kennedy over at XFM has picked up on it now,
well he picked up on that first split single last year but this new stuff
is way better than that, something special is evolving up North – be thinking
Motorhead for liars fans, Mudhoney, be there on Wednesday and the Buffalo
Bar, Islington, North London – Wednesday 16th April...
likke I already said down theee, yer man from Deerhunter was right to be
talking of Flipper! To The Bones don’t sound like your average English
band from the North West, they sound like some cool as f word of mouth
alternative North American band - no no, I don’t mean they’re copying our
friends from over there, I mean they have the suss and musical swagger
along with the creative depth, this new stuff sounds like Motorhead feasting
on those Liars – oh have we got a live one here, I love it when it comes
together like this! Just be there, don't sit at home with a stick up yer
arse being your usual London too cool self! Check out a new band,
get a taste here - www.myspace.com/tothebones |
12th
APR - PURE REASON REVOLUTION
today then, catch the band taking a break from the final throws of the
new album to play a one off show in London at the Kings Cross Water Rats,
support is hand picked so be there early for VESSELS,
they on at 8.00pm, doors around 7.30, the show is pretty much sold out,
about 30 tickets left yesterday so you will have to be there early to get
in if you haven’t got a ticket. Pure Reason are promising new material,
Vessels are promising a longer than normal support slot set, the new single
will be on sale... |
8th
APR - IMPERIAL LEISURE
have now been added to the Beachdown Festival bill on August 25th
- the festival takes place on the beautiful Southern English Downs just
outside Brighton, good looking bill as well - De La Soul, Reverend &
The Makers (OK, go for a beer while they’re on) and Lightspeed Champion
have all been confirmed for the new Sussex festival. Beachdown is being
staged over that busy busy busy festival weekend, the August Bank Holiday,
22-25 Aug. Also on the bill are Infadels, The Hat and Roy Ayers and it
looks like one of the more enjoyable places to be that weekend..
Hey
look, our work here at ORG is almost done now, Imperial Leisure are on
their way, our part is over - two buzzing singles that brought them some
more than deserved attention when everyone had been pretty much ignoring
them for a good few years - beats us why no one else wanted to put the
wreckords out. Two singles then, two singles that you need to grab now
while you still can before the silly prices on Ebay kick in – found a handful
of the first single here today so they’re on the mailorder
page at the originla two quid price. Yes indeed, our work is done, looks
like they’ll be busy at the festivals all summer long and we expect they'll
be all over your daytime radio and late night music TV if their people
get it right - big if, but hey, the band are there, they have the songs,
they have the energy, they have the work ethic... and I hate to be cynical
here, but just how many great bands do we have to put on a plate only to
watch the mainstream London music industry make a complete pigs ear of
it? Nah, no way they can mess this one up, surely not – ladies and gents,
our work is done, things have been good, we had fun, we're getting off
the ride now while we still have smiles on our faces. Good look Leisure
boys, you're going to need it. For all your future Imperial Leisure wants,
needs, news and more head on over to www.imperial-leisure.co.uk

APR - PURE REASON REVOLUTION’s
new four track CD single is officially released next Monday, pre-orders
are being dispatched right now, just as fast as we can pack them here.
Singles are heading to Argentina, Canada, Germany, Italy, Australia, Brazil,
France, Mexico, Ireland, Sweden, Norway, oh, packages are going everywhere.
A real band with a real following. You can hear the tracks on the band’s
My
Space page, you can hear the lead track and see a video montage of
footage from last year’s European tour with Blackfield here
on You Tube, you can catch the band taking a break from the new album with
a one off London show at the Kings Cross Water Rats next Saturday April
12th and finally, if you’re not going to that show then your best way to
get the single is to mailorder it from here.
Copies will be on sale at the show. This single is a limited edition of
1000, when they’re gone that’s it.
2nd
APR - PURE REASON REVOLUTION
ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM DEAL – Pure Reason Revolution are starting to reveal
plans in terms of their much anticipated new album. The new single and
the first fruits of this new period of activity will be the new single
here on ORG – Victorious Cupid is out on April 14th - the band play a one
off gig on April 12th at London’s Water Rats (aka Metro) in King’s Cross
(with support from the excellent post-rock outfit from Leeds you know as
Vessels).
Both the single and tickets for the gig are selling fast. Advice is book
your tickets
now, last time we checked the gig was about 80% sold out and we’re not
expecting the band to play again until the album is ready to go. Pure Reason
Revolution have today announced they have joined Oceansize
and You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead
on rather good looking new alternative label Superball
Music.
1st
APR - HERZOGA
recorded three songs for a Radio One session at Maida Vale in London yesterday.
We’re told the first fruits of this recording session should be heard on
the Huw Stephens show on BBC RADIO ONE this Wednesday night

31st
MAR - The new IMPERIAL LEISURE
single, Man On The Street, the second release from the band with us here
at ORG, is out TODAY. In theory you should be able to find the beautiful
three track CD is any decent independent record shop, the reality is that
you may find it in some of the more aware shops but you probably won’t
find it in too many – Maybe Normans, or Rough Trade, Punker Bunker down
in Brighton, the ever excellent Spillers over in Cardiff (is Spillers still
alive, hanging on last time I checked – hang on, yes! They’re still hanging
in there, good to see those Manic Street Preachers fighting for Spillers!),
Cob in Bangor (they better have some in Cob, I spent every school lunch
hour and all my dinner money in there - I was a skinny kid, damn impressive
record collection though), Probe in Liverpool, Vinyl Tap (actually I see
Vinyl Tap are selling old ORG releases at silly collectors prices, twenty
seven quid for that one, you can get it for a quid direct from us!). Yes
indeed, the reality is that you’ll maybe find the new Imperial Leisure
single in some places where they’re actually on the case and aware and
care. Where they think the risk of buying the stock is worth the gamble
when the release in question is from a band most haven’t actually heard
of yet – go check out those cool shops where people want to talk about
music and share the experience rather than just sell you sanitized marketed
product (if you’re lucky enough to have such a shop in your town).
You’ll find the new CD in some shops and you may not in others. If you
really want this single right now then mailorder (or off the band at gigs)
is the reality of the way it happens right now. Won’t be in most shops
until there’s a great big well-oiled machine bankrolling a release and
backing it with advertising campaigns and tours and pretty much giving
away the stock to the HMV type shops for free. That’s how it is (yes, sure
we’ll stock your record if you sell us a hundred for the price of ten and
you pay the costs of our HMV advert in the music press and the band will
do an in-store for nothing and you sacrifice a goat before we open the
doors and...). Who can blame the little shops – tough running a real independent
record shop with millions of bands no one really cares about being hyped
and advertised all over the NME and places like The Fly (“we like your
releases but you don’t have a marketing budget for advertising do you”
said Mr Fly outside The Monarch the other day). Poor record shop owners
are clogged up with the latest hypes that no one actually wants – almost
as tough running a shop as it is running a real independent label these
days. So the reality is if you want this CD now before it gets re-issued
by some big label (or fake indie label backed by a major) and hyped all
over the place - and quite frankly were not here for all that “marketing”
and “product” and all that soul sucking stuff, we’re here because we love
music and we do things our way because we don’t want what we do polluted
and watered down by the evils and the back stabbing of the music industry
– no doubt in six months time Imperial Leisure will be on some kind of
label that does things the conventional way and in six months time NME
will be telling you about how they’ve discovered this hot new band and
Zane b***dy Lowe will be on the radio with his “hey The Zipper here, taste-maker
for the nation with the hottest new band in the world - hey kids, I’ve
been on this one since day one baby, does my shit smell of roses or what”
The Fly will run a new band feature in conjunction with some mobile phone
shampoo company who want you to drink their crap larger, Rocksound will
finally bother turning up to a gig and everyone will congratulate themselves
on how on the case they are when it comes to covering new bands. So if
you want the single now then mailorder
is the way – don’t think of staring a record label and supporting new bands
now, you’d have to be sucker these days to want to try and run a REAL independent
record label and do things the right way...
28th
MAR - IMPERIAL LEISURE
then, seems an age, by their standards, since they played a decent hometown
gig, not going to count that YoYo stuff from the other day, although those
who did actually manage to get in say the band were as good as ever. The
band are at Koko on Camden on 12th April with Roots
Manuva and Shapes
Of Broad Minds, apparently the show starts
at 9.00 and goes on to 3.00am – I’m guessing that means Imperial Leisure
on early in the evening? The next ‘proper’ gig will be a headline at the
100 Club in London on May 22nd (and the way things are going I'd get a
ticket in advance if I were you), not that playing Koko isn’t a proper
gig but you know what we mean. The band will apparently be back in full
action in late May and June. Although who knows, they do have a new single
out this week, so hopefully they have something up their sleeve? Surely
they do? Yeah, no way a band would stop doing anything for six weeks when
they have a new single coming out? Watch this space, watch your street
corner, watch your in-box... Are you on our Imperial Leisure mailing list
here at ORG just in case? Imperial
Leisure mailing list. The single is in your shops on Monday, best to
mailorder it to be sure though, you know how quickly the last one sold
out and you know how much this new single is going to be selling for this
time next year when the world discovers how good this band are - grab the
proper physical single now - mailorder

MAR - "IMPERIAL LEISURE STAND OUT LIKE A CLOWN AT A FUNERAL" so say Kerrang
this week, "A BLAST OF FRESH AIR", read the whole thing here.
Never mind that, the North Devon Journal says they blew Asian Dub Foundation
off stage last week in Barnstable - “the surprisingly big news of the night
lay in the support act, Imperial Leisure, a 10-piece ska/punk/rap outfit
from London. Taking to the stage in a wave of confidence that would rage
right through to the last note, the gaggle of Fred Perry-wearing wideboys
skanked their way through high energy numbers such as Man On The Street,
Sitting In The Middle and future sing-a-long classic I'm In Love With The
Landlord's Daughter. Undoubtedly the highlight of the evening, the Leisure
boys whipped the crowd up into a frenzy with their stage antics which included
flamboyant frontman Denis leaping from a speaker stand, dowsing the audience
with Champagne and parading the band's trombone player around on his shoulders
while playing. Once they'd left the stage, and almost been put in the awkward
position of performing an encore, a large number of gig-goers had to sit
down to recooperate having expended all their energy flailing their limbs
to the two-tone beat. If they carry on like this they will go far - Imperial
Leisure are not average” (Joel Cooper).
All
advance orders for the new IMPERIAL LEISURE
single have been mailed out today, if you'd like to mailorder a copy then
here's where you go for the details
24th
MAR - Seems CARDIACS

place still be there by then? More news when there is more news, we're
as frustrated as hares that missed spring around here.... Talking of tickets
being on sales if you're thinking of coming to the PURE
REASON REVOLUTION / VESSELS show at the Water
Rats in London on the 12th April then tickets are selling fast, there may
not be any on the day.

21st
MAR - HERZOGA
at the Silver Rocket Long Good Friday at the Buffalo Bar in London tonight,
right by Highbury tube station, they're on second at around 7.00pm - no
need to bring id (unless you look underage), no need to get on guest list,
no agressive doormen...
Well
IMPERIAL LEISURE sounded good from the street
outside that YoYo night at the Notting hill Arts Club last night, we didn’t
get past the rather violent threatening door men who seem to think using
threats and violence against females and keeping people waiting outside
for no good reason is OK. Typical London toss and we really don’t need
it leaking in to gig-going culture like it is. Spoke to several others
outside who had problems with the aggressive door men, their power-tripping
and the pathetic venue/promoter policy. If anyone else had problems please
get in touch, we’d like to hear from you – we did point out before hand
that the smell of bull was in the air. Did question before why the band
wanted to play a club with a door policy like that – venues you can only
get in to on the guest list and with ID, what kind of crap is that? That
is not what we’re about here and if anyone else had the problems we had
last night then sorry! Haven’t spoken to the band yet, I’m sure they had
no real idea what was going down, I’m sure they’re discovering what’s what
and it sounded from the brief converdation before hand they were beingdicked
about as well. If you did travel to the gig last night and didn’t get in
then get in touch and let us put things right.

19th
MAR - TO THE BONES
play a hometown show in Bolton tomorrow night at the Kiko club – tomorrow
is the 20th, the band are building up to their debut single proper and
the follow up to that split with Herzoga that we released late last year.
The Bones boys will be back in London on April 16th for a Goonite night
at the Buffalo Bar in Islington. Got a whole batch of new recordings from
them yesterday, yer man from Deerhunter was right to be talking of Flipper!
To The Bones don’t sound like your average English band from the North
West, they sound like some cool as f word of mouth alternative North American
band - no no, I don’t mean they’re copying our friends from over there,
I mean they have the suss and musical swagger along with the creative depth,
this new stuff sounds like Motorhead feasting on those Liars – oh have
we got a live one here, I love it when it comes together like this!
IMPERIAL
LEISURE also have a hometown show tomorrow,
20th March, some kind of club thing at the Nottinghill Arts Centre, over
here in West London, on stage at 8.00, you need to be on a guest list to
get it, smells a little of London bulshit to me but hey, they just love
getting in people’s faces and playing... if you want on thr three quid
list then e.mail us...

REASON REVOLUTION have pretty much finished
their new album, more news on that very soon...
IMPERIAL
LEISURE are now confirmed for the 2000TREES
festival, looks like a good bill this year, looks like it could be one
of the festivals of the year - ART BRUT, FRANK
TURNER, FUTURE OF THE LEFT, THE KING BLUES
and more... Festival organiser Scarlett said “The most important thing
for us is that 2000trees has amazing live acts; and after seeing Imperial
Leisure tear the Borderline in London, we just had to book them!”. James
went on further: "For me 2000trees is about achieving a friendly and intimate
festival experience and conceived as a reaction to the huge corporate sponsored
and impersonal that routinely cram you in like sardines and proceed to
rip you off at opportunity! It may sound cheesy but we want to create something
special something different for UK music fans.". Imperial Leisure will
be playing the main stage Saturday 12th July. For more infor head over
