offered their night off to the good people of York . Youll get yourself

festivals (Download, T in the Park, V Festival) and for acts like Velvet
Revolver, Lenny Kravitz, Black Stone Cherry, The Hot Melts and The Who.
Everywhere they go, Sons Of Albion blow away fans and critics with their
hard-driving brand of rock, which has been drawing comparisons to
Soundgarden, Audioslave, and Rage Against The Machine.

Nov - Eileen Rose And The Holy Wreck + Roscoe la Belle + Dream Of Apollo
// Doors open 7.30pm Advance price £8
Boston-born, the youngest of eight in an Italian-Irish-American family -
and nobody sings about regret and precious time lost quite like Eileen
Rose. And it's earned her a dedicated following of fans and critics.
"Sensational" - Sunday Times; "A gem" - Guardian;
"Mesmeric" - Uncut and "A shining debut" - Q. Using a
lot of slide guitar so she must be alt-country right? On the other hand,
there's good old-fashioned rock for grown-ups in there too. Whatever, it's
a combination of rare power, polish and perception with near perfect
songsmithery Madame could be a one-woman mid-period Floyd. Or the new
Janis Joplin/Stevie Nicks/Patti Smith
10
Nov - The Holloways + Little Gem + Littlemores // Doors
open 7.30pm Advance price £9.50
Stop-start cheeky street-urchin punk from The Holloways, who are based, of
course, in Holloway. Distorted guitars and retro stylings are combined
with whimsical fiddle and a naughty attitude and it's that combination of
forthright cheekiness and romance that has won The Holloways their fame.
Feeling reborn is a rare treat; but The Holloways resilience in recent
times has led to what feels like a rebirth. Reaping such a rare reward was
the first step along the clear path that now lies ahead for a band who
once again have much to smile about; not that The Holloways had stopped
smiling - not for very long anyway. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
11
Nov - Erik Mongrain + The Fallen (acoustic) // Doors
open 7.30pm Advance price £7
Amazing. Moving. Incredible. Just a few of the much-deserved words of
praise heaped upon Canadian acoustic guitar genius, the 28-yr-old
guitarist Erik Mongrain. As a teenager inspired by Bach to Metallica, and
Hendrix to Don Ross, Erik began to experiment with a technique known as
lap tapping, in which the player lays the guitar across their lap, and
taps the strings on the fret board with both hands. Interspersed with
classical technique and jazz/pop sensibilities, here is a truly unique
musician and entertainer. Recommended!!
12
Nov - Breed 77 + OMT + Symphony Cult // Doors open
7.30pm Advance price £9
London based hard rock band whose innovative marrying of rock and Eastern
musical influences have brought together a mighty following across Europe
and further afield. Breed 77 relocated from Gibraltar in 1997 and won
Kerrang!'s 'Best Unsigned Band' readers' poll in 1998, and have since
continued their inexorable assault towards maintaining themselves as
international rock icons. ID IS ESSENTIAL
13
Nov - Dead Rebellion // Doors open 7.30pm Advance
price £4
Well, get ready to punch the air and get your ears bruised by the
infectious hooks and thumpin sounds of DEAD REBELLION, a groundbreaking
collective with killer grooves, tight rhymes, filthy basslines, phat
beats, dirty electronica and cut-throat guitars. Described as
...musically volatile and the mutts nuts! and we recon theyre quite
possibly the best live band in the area right now, the DEAD REBELLION live
show dictates an abundance of frantic energy, impounded in a wall of epic
sound. Recommended. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
14
Nov - Lost From Atlas + Surprise Fire // Doors open
7.30pm Advance price £4
Lost from atlas are an instrumental, alternative trio from Yorkshire . The
band was born in November 2008 in the small city of York . In a live
environment the band challenge the conventional ways of performance,
interlinking song structures and playing whole sets without any breaks or
gaps between songs. Since the band formed they have played frequent shows
around the York area and released their debut self titled EP on 1st July.
The band are currently located in the Leeds area and have just finished
recording their debut album scheduled for release early November along
side an album tour. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
16
Nov - Two Door Cinema Club // Doors open 7.30pm
Advance price £5
Two Door Cinema Club are 3 people with the help of technology and a thirst
for anything quirky. An obvious absence in the rhythm department is humbly
filled by an unadulterated Macintosh and the electronic thump from the
fourth imperceptible member goes hand in hand with the electro/pop
direction. Their music has been loosely compared to the likes of Death Cab
for Cutie and Broken Social Scene but without a definitive capacity to be
pigeon-holed. Melodic vocals, which hail from all three members of the
outfit, infuse with guitar riffs that have been described as 'oceanic' and
rhythm described as 'pulsing'. To get the symbolism out of the way, take
your seats; its going to be a blockbuster! ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
18
Nov - Ian Siegal (plus band) // Doors open 7.30pm
Advance price £8.50
Ian's driving bottleneck guitar style and classic blues voice has won him
a lot of fans worldwide. One of the finest blues voices this side of the
Atlantic, Ian was dubbed by Mojo magazine as 'the cleverest writer and
most magnetic performer of blues currently working in the UK '. An
enigmatic delivery of the blues. Without doubt the most talented musician
to emerge from Britain on to the European blues scene in years, he doesn't
just perform the blues, he is possessed by them. You may catch him
supporting Johnny Winter at the Grand Opera House in May. Recommended.
19
Nov - Canterbury + Dressed In Their Best + Lights Go Blue //
Doors open 7.30pm Advance price £5
Fresh from tours with Billy Talent and Hundred Reasons, Canterbury spent
2008 building a rabid live following on the back of shows up and down the
UK with the likes of Enter Shikari, You Me At 6 and The Automatic. Now
they embark on their own headline tour in support of the release of their
debut album. Rock Sound described them as "the finest post-Shikari
outfit we've encountered". ID IS ESSENTIAL!
20
Nov - Chew Lips // Doors open 7.30pm Advance price
£5
A couple of micro-Korgs, a couple of really old-school Casios, a bass
guitar, a laptop and a drum machine, Chew Lips singer Tigs could feasibly
be listing the instrumental line-up of every band to emerge this side of
2007. With an Eighties electro-pop revival in full swing, Chew Lips might
look like more of the same trendy synthobsessed Casio-kids, but they would
like to beg differently. We're an electro- pop act in the form of a
rock band, and we want to make classic pop music - music that sounds so
dated it doesn't date. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
23
Nov - Good Shoes + Copy Haho // Doors open 7.30pm
Advance price £8
Good Shoes have managed to take jangling early Cure and make it into
charming, breezy guitar pop, Morrissey on the day he finally realises how
to pull the fork from his arse. Lovely chap and front-man Rhys does a fine
job of the lyrics too, brilliantly managing to combine am awareness of the
vulnerabilities of the male psyche with an honest vocal style. We await
imminent debut album 'Think Before You Speak' with increasingly keen
anticipation. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
27
Nov - Mission District // Doors open 7.30pm Advance
price £6
The Mission District may have called their full-length debut Youth Games,
but there's nothing frivolous or shallow about it. This is a musically
mature and compelling work, one that reflects the wealth of creative
experience the still young sextet has already accumulated. ID IS
ESSENTIAL!!
28
Nov - Johnny Foreigner + Overreact // Doors open 7.30pm
Advance price £7
Sounding like Huggy Bear just crashed Help She Can't Swim; Alexei, Kelly
and Junior think they are Chicago 1997 or a Pacman ghost. Noisy pop songs
about gin and girls sound like they were recorded inside a steel dustbin
and it's the most serene republic singing over Cap'n Jazz (short-lived
titans of stylistically tangled emo prog-punk-hardcore-whatever). You may
have seen them here not so long ago with The Mae Shi. Reccomended. ID IS
ESSENTIAL ! !
29
Nov - Gay For Johnny Depp + Blakfish + Outcry Collective //
Doors open 7.30pm Advance price £7
New
York noise terrorists Gay For Johnny Depp return to the UK to take of the
country's finest BLACKFISH and OUTCRY COLLECTIVE on a threeway
rotating headline Triple Threat Tour. Gay For Johnny Depp are constructed
from certain members of Garrison (guitarist Ed McNamara) and Instruction
(singer Andy Shepard) and coming on like the diseased offspring of
Daughters and The Blood Brothers they could well be the definitive
metaphor for descent in to insanity. A brilliant scuzzy mess of scratchy
guitars, grating screechy vocals and tin-pot precision. ID IS ESSENTIAL!!
30
Nov - Cruxshadows + Ayria + Screaming Banshee Aircrew + DJ Batastrophe (Darklands)
// Doors open 7.30pm Advance price £11
One of the most popular darkwave, Gothic bands from Florida Cruxshadows
are BACK delivering electronic rock and "dizzying live
performances" to UK audiences. Over the bands 15 years of progressive
success in genres ranging from new wave to electronics, they have acquired
underground status as well as a staggering fan base from America and
Europe . Be sure not to miss!
