Miguel and the Living Dead have updated their Myspace with new tracks from the forthcoming 'Postcards From The Other Side'.
From initial listening it seems they are heading in a slightly more Batcave direction whilst still carrying a lumbering load of Horror-Punk-Abilly on their decaying soldiers. Hope to have the album for review in a a few weeks. Fingers crossed.

Way back in the day there was a Batcave Compilation on Vinyl.

And lo and behold it is available for download (50mb) thanks to Cactus Mouth Informer.
Made my day anyway.

The Coven, five years young lies at the dark heart of Luton's seedy underworld. Well actually it lives at present in the basement of a rather obscure council building.
Run by self proclaimed 'sad old Goth', and all round top bloke, DJ Nephlimbabe, the Coven endeavors to cater to a wide range of dark subversive types. Everything from from hairy metal kids thru confused punks in black thru cyber creatures from planet goggles to all out art-punk ponces.
So that would be a Goth club then - the usual diverse and friendly crowd.
DJs CovenAlex & DJ Nephilimbabe spin an eclectic mix to suit the crowd, and educate too. But this night was special. To celebrate 5 years of dark spooky fun and games the Screaming Banshee Aircrew are here to entertain the local denizens.

Eddie Argos. What can we say. Art Brut weave together simple catchy riffs with Eddie's unique vocal style and earthy lyrics about life, love and, well stuff. So a new album, It's a Bit Complicated. A new direction, or more of the same?

Released in 1977 Ultravox!'s debut seems to fortell the coming post-punk evolution by two or three years. There is a least one web rockist that claims post-punk is nothing more than the bastard child of art-rock and poncey brit punk. And you know maybe they are right? In a good way.

The XX Teens (Nee: Xerox) serve up their first video. Caught these folks a few months back trailing some beige indie tripe. Now they seem to have some backing and I love this cacthy off-beat art-rock piece. The video has it's moments too. Enjoy.
