Sat 13th @ The Attic
Hello,
The Loungs are playing at The Attic next Saturday. You can listen to some stuff at our site (streaming, hassle free) and look at how ugly we are... We're also gonna be on BBC GMR on Tuesday night just after midnight... http://www.theloungs.co.uk Oh and if anyone could tell us if there's any daft one way systems to avoid that'd be lovely. Cheers. Review from www.highvoltage.org.uk The Loungs - Demo 2005 Web - http://www.theloungs.co.uk If the Magic Numbers were the angelic, happy sound of the early summer, then The Loungs are their much cooler, ****-taking Scouse cousins who used to spend July skiving Maths behind the bike-sheds with a joint and a bottle of White Lightning. And are therefore obviously the sound of the rest of the summer, it being festival season and all. But oh yeah � they�re not really Scouse. They just sound like they are. Despite actually coming from St.Helens, a �funny little town midway between Liverpool and Manchester,� as Wills The Loung helpfully told me; opening track of the little medley he put together especially for us here at HV, �All Your Love�, is positively Coral-tinged. With vocal harmonies the size of �Shadows Fall� from Skelly and the gang�s debut album, and a stop-start rhythm complete with maracas and la-la-las, it transports you to a faraway calypso land faster than you can say Easyjet. But the lesson to learn here, kids, is that these particular melody merchants take influences from, rather than rob people. Self-confessed adoring fans of Brian Wilson, The Loungs� second track �Armageddon Outta Here� is unmistakably West Coast, yet most definitely their own. Jaunty, sun-drenched guitars and gleefully flippant lyrics (�And let the plane fall from the sky-y / For you know that I won�t miss you when you die-ie�) make this probably the most joyful break-up song you�ll ever hear. Psychedelic hurdy-gurdy �Seen My Baby Dancing� is a stoned ride on the waltzers with the Beach Boys and leaves you feeling decidedly giddy before you are gently nudged, stumbling forward, toward the initially acoustic following number where singer Jambo kindly informs you �I�m gonna take your girl away from you, you fool� with a condescending smile upon his face. Never mind, the rest of them are there to put the comforting arm around your bewildered shoulders that is �In Winter Coats� while you mourn your inevitable loss, and finish up with daft little ditty �Cats� to make you smile again. Phew! After that emotional rollercoaster, I need a breather; but only to let you know that The Loungs will be making an appearance at our very own Club Voltage, at Music Box on the 4th August; before I rush off to listen again. Who needs a holiday when we have The Loungs right here? |

Re: Sat 13th @ The Attic
Well DTL you must have impressed Cashy ......... he's informed me that he's already rung The Attic to make sure he can take his zimmer frame up and that they have a parking space for his mobility scooter
 Don't get caught drinking and driving on it though Cashy  Ohhh yeah and he''ll wear a shirt ( I hope he puts his pants on too nakedness doesn't suit him  )

It was fun, and we met a nice man in the chicken place round the corner.
