Stapleton On The Enjoyment Of Unpleasant Places "Glasgow's Stapleton. They're among the best acts in the UK, regardless of genre, and the original, eight-track version of this release (now fleshed-out with the excellent, and very deleted 'Icy You' single) remains a firm favourite of mine to this day. If you're a newcomer to this three-piece, but have a warm, inviting spot in your heart for any band that morphs from Superchunk to Braid through Built To Spill and Pavement, whilst sounding every bit and yet nothing like them, let Stapleton establish a permanent residency. I may have heard standouts 'Esplanade' and 'Our Returning Champion' a hundred times, but this release just serves as a reminder that they are, in fact, timeless. A truly indespensible records, unless you've already got it of course." - Rock Sound Aug 2004 "Stapleton are a bit of an enigma in the British scene, simply because they're an indie band. It's true, ok so they may throw it around a bit, maybe lean a bit over to the likes of Braid with their time changes and clever bits, but it's obvious there is no-one like this. They play beautiful, clever and perfectly judged songs and make great albums. This is one of them, so if you haven't got it yet, then what are you up to?" - Play Dead --> This is the long over-due repress of the second album from Glasgow indie-rockers Stapleton. Originally released in October 2001 on the now defunct Subjugation label, the initial pressing sold out within three months and has been unavailable since. Now re-released by Gravity DIP Records with bonus tracks (all three tracks from previous single 'Icy You' are have been added) and improved art-work / packaging, its now ready for new and old fans alike to re-discover this lost treasure. Playing lo-fi angular indie-rock whilst never forgetting the melodic hooks and with sheer poetry lyrically, their unique and quite special music appeals as much to fans of Snowpatrol and Idlewild as it does to lovers of Modest Mouse and Braid.

Capdown New Revolutionaries "Vital. Original. Stunning. Awesome. Piling the praise on CapDown has never felt better, as it'd becoming more apparent with each new release that they're one of the last 'proper' punk bands you can truly believe in. 'New Revolutionaries' is the bounding next step to follow on from their equally as impressive 'Act Your Rage' single, proving the last few months have seen them galvanise their breakneck, saxy polemics. As the title suggests, we might just be on the brink of a full blown insurrection." - KKKKK Single Of The Week. Kerrang 11/10/03 Capdown are the UKs leading ska-core band. Mixing up ska, punk, hardcore, reggae and more like only they know how, with an ever political message and always ferociously incredible live shows. This is Capdowns second single this year and offers 3 new tracks, again produced by Larry Hibbitt of Hundred Reasons giving it a bigger rock sound. New Revolutionaries is a great punk-rock record in every sense and re-enforces how important this band is to the UK punk scene and alternative music in general. B-sides feature long time live favourite Mr Music and a reworking of the Rancid classic I wanna riot. New Revolutionaries Mr Music I Wanna Riot Gravity DIP Records CD

Instruction Rise Up "Now this is more like it. Produced by Larry Hibbitt from Hundred Reasons, Instruction sound exactly like you'd expect a band who feature an ex-member of post-hardcore mavericks Quicksand to sound. Tough, angular, discordant and melodic in all the right places, 'Rise Up' is an uplifting slice of angsty rock that hits hard and fast. Recommended" - Kerrang 18/10/03 Its been a great year for Instruction. They've toured with the likes of Hell Is For Heroes, Biffy Clyro and Funeral For A Friend, rocked the Reading and Leeds festivals, and even played twice at Donington. In this time they've been wowing audiences and the music-buying public alike with their unique brand of angst driven rock / post-hardcore. They now release a three track single to give a hint of whats to come with their full length debut due early next year for Geffen. Rise Up is typical Instruction - powerfully delivered Foo Fighters meets Rival Schools rock mixed by Larry Hibbitt of Hundred Reasons. The b-sides are 'Feed The Culture', which sees front man Arty Shepherd pick up his acoustic guitar to present more of an emotional / fragile side to Instruction, whilst Your Punk Sucks (live) captures on cd the highlight of their live performances with their renowned anti-fake-punk anthem. As an enhanced cd, it also features videos for the previous release Great. A fine taste of all sides of this great band.

Metronomes Travel Sports One of the stand-out albums of 2003. Instrumental lofi-indie / post-rock thats a dynamic mix of taut guitars, undulating bass-lines, subtle electronics and inventive percussion. A very beautiful album that is the solo work of Stapleton's Al Paxton. A record you will lose yourself in and wonder where the last 45 minutes went. If you're into Sea And Cake, American Analogue Set, Karate, Fourtet etc then you wont regret picking up a copy. Excellent stuff Download 'Cub' as an MP3 (2,575Kb) Gravity DIP Records CD

Douglas 'B' Is The New Way colin from doulgas now sings in the new 1920. 3 new tracks and the video of the lead song, and as such is the first new stuff from the mighty Douglas in years. Certainly a progression, these three tracks see the Welsh boys enveloping more of a post-hardcore sound into their brand of melodic punk. Great to have new stuff by them and an exciting sign of things to come. B Is The New Way Johnnie Mack Onus B Is The New Way (video) gravity DIP Records CD

Instruction The Great EP "there'll be no need to phone trading standards about this little beauty. 'The Great EP' is just that: Great. Four tracks of uplifting melodic rock that sound like Hundred Reasons covering Foo Fighters songs and featuring ex members of Quicksand and Errotype:11, this will surely be making its mark in rock clubs soon. Taking a mighty swipe at the current wave of garage-rock on 'Death To The Four Car Garage Band' and pop-punk on 'Your Punk Sucks', this is a glorious set of songs. Even if you're not an emo fan, you'd have to be the most stubborn c**t ever not to be instantly impressed." - Kerrang! KKKKK live review in Kerrang! "our new favourite band" said the mag. The new band formed by the back-bone of Errotype:11 joined by Tom Capone formerly guitarist with Quicksand. Picking up where ET:11 left off, this 4-track EP features a re-working of a track that originally was seen on a singles club split release from Hundred Reasons, and three all new tracks. Full of passionate, powerful, angry, dark grungey rock with 'fuck you' attitude and a pissed off vocal. 'Great' is an uplifting-the-down-trodden motivational rocker... and elsewhere the record takes a swip at garage rock and the scene in general by presenting one of the most powerful rock-with-balls EPs you're likely to hear. If you're into Rival Schools, Foo Fighters then leave that to the past and rock on with Instruction.

Archie And The Instincts Burning Heart Archie And The Instincts play poetic and melodic emo/indie-rock akin to Saves The Day and Jimmy Eat World, and recently shot to fame when they won the prestigious XFM Unsigned Competition (previous winners being Athlete and Aqualung). As recognition of this achievement, they received studio time with renowned producer Dave Eringa to record their debut single Burning Heart. This single has been A-listed on XFM in London, and has been no.1 in the stations listeners chart. Their quality musicianship shines through on all the tracks, with an acoustic version of 'Forget Me Not' and the punk-rock fury of 'Instincts' both produced by Hundred Reasons' Larry Hibbitt, and could easily be singles in their own right... The video to the 'Burning Heart' is also included as an enhanced cd. "Imagine Saves The Day fronted by Ash mainman Tim Wheeler, throw in a huge dollop of melody and a chorus to kill for and you have the EP's title-track, a song which, to me, is one of the best British releases of the year so far. Come the summer 'Burning Heart' will be on mix tapes everywhere. It's a feelgood song that is a radio anthem-in-waiting - all delicious vocals and chirpy harmonies. The appeal is simple; this song is all about the singalong hooks and feelgood factor. Harking back to a time when Chris Conley wrote fast, upbeat songs that didn't disappear up his own bum, Archie take their own British slant, some driving guitars and a hook the size of Holland. Throw in Dave Eringa's production and you have a track that will be all over the place in no time at all. But Archie are no one trick pony as the two other efforts prove. 'Forget Me Not' is included in acosutic form and even stripped down it oozes class. The vocals again nod towards early Saves The Day but again there's a huge chorus that will have you singing along quicker than you can say 'emo is evil'. Even the faster 'Instincts' has more power than a Mike Tyson uppercut, not to mention enough energy to keep a small African nation in electricity. The question remains that if Archie are this good, why have I not heard of them before? I guess it doesn't matter - I just hope they are now here to stay. If this is the basis of a future album, I hope it comes sooner rather than later. If you're looking for your new favourite band, you may well have just found it... - Punktastic.com Gravity DIP Records CD

Lucky Thirteen / Twofold Split Two tracks a piece from two bands from the Kingston area. Lucky Thirteen play catchy emo-pop-rock along the lines of Alkaline Trio, Saves The Day or Face To Face. This is their first release. Twofold are at the other end of the spectrum. Aggressive and progressive multi-vocalled melodic hardcore along the lines of Small Brown Bike or Hot Water Music Both tracks were produced by Hundred Reasons' Larry Hibbitt. Gravity DIP Records CD

Douglas Douglas This is pretty much a "history of Douglas, part one" from one the best bands in the UK. Driving melodic hardcore/punk-rock along the lines of Ataris or Samiam but with a unique British feel to it. Compiles tracks from their 'Persona' album, as well as a more recent EP and their split with Ataris, plus their Jawbreaker cover. Recently toured with Hundred Reasons, Capdown, Lost Prophets and Saves The Day amongst others. Douglas have moved on along way since these tracks were recorded. They now have less of a pop-punk feel and more of a post hardcore sound, But that isn't to undermine the quality of the tracks on this record that, although mostly no longer a part of their live show, are still a top selection and the foundation for today's sound. 1. Keeping Up 2. Fish Eyed World 3. Four AM 4. Skip 5. Time To Leave 6. Incomplete 7. Slouch 8. Boxcar 9. Bar Bathng 10. Kickback 11. Drinking Alone 12. Alarm Bells And Fuck Ups 13. Last Orders 14. Block And Fall 15. Mules Hind Leg 16. Menthol Evacuation 17. Trilby Gravity DIP Records CD
