DESCRIPTION: [Full details at http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4790206/ ] DARKER MY LOVE
 Following an American tour with A Place To Bury Strangers\, this is the only UK headline show from this acclaimed LA-based five-piece\, whose psychedelic wall of noise finds the middle ground between My Bloody Valentine and Can\, but with the melodies of The Beatles or The Zombies. Their incredible second album\, ‘2’\, belatedly got a UK release in the summer. Interestingly\, frontman Tim Presley and bassist/singer Rob Barbato are both current members of The Fall.

 SAD DAY FOR PUPPETS
 Swedish five-piece take a break from their UK dates with A Place To Bury Strangers for this show.
