Gigs!/Shows!/Concerts!/Tónleikar!

pbp — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 04:55:53 +0000

We’ve got a bunch of PBP related shows coming up in April.

Saturday, April 13th, SPY KIDS 3D will be playing their first show ever along with the indie rock band KNIFE FIGHTS which includes members of GANG RELATED and whose performance on Saturday will also be their first. The show is at Dillon, starts at 10 pm and it’s free.

Friday, April 19th, STE MCCABE, an artist from the UK, will be playing his queer-feminist-electro-pop-punk at Dillon. You can check his music out at http://www.ste-mccabe.co.uk. Melodic crust influenced hardcore band, KLIKK, will also be playing. The show is free but it would be nice if you could bring some money for donations.

Saturday, April 20th, ÞÓRIR GEORG will perform at Lucky Records. They’re having this huge Record Store Day celebration with a bunch of bands playing. Hopefully, I’ll remember to post an update when I know more.

The band formerly known as NORN is now called BÖRN due to some black metal band stealing the name and actually be an active band instead of just sitting on their asses and talking about hypothetical band rehearsals. BÖRN will play their first show in 18 months or so, on Thursday, April 25th at Stúdentakjallarinn. Also performing are WORLD NARCOSIS, who play a mix of black metal grindcore and hardcore, and post-punk/goth newcomers, THE INNOCENCE OF SLEEP.

The folk punk band GHOST MICE will also be playing a couple of shows in Iceland at the end of the month. I know they’re playing somewhere Húsavík on April 25th and somewhere in Reykjavík on April 27th. They’re a really great band and really great people. I’ll post more info when I have it.

Góði dátinn

pbp — Sun, 07 Oct 2012 00:45:07 +0000

There once was a post-hardcore band called Góði dátinn. They played one show and recorded a few songs before breaking up. Three songs from that recording session have now been put online. The rest of the songs are on a cassette in a box collecting dust somewhere. Until they are found you can listen to this:

PBP013: SPY KIDS 3D – s/t WWW (2012)

pbp — Sun, 15 Jul 2012 21:57:51 +0000

SPY KIDS 3D is a duo playing a mix of punk and indie rock. This self-titled debut was recorded in 2010 and 2011 on crappy equipment in crappy spaces here and there. We’ve been meaning to put this out on CD for quite some time now, but since the band is not active at the moment and it’s been more than a year since it was finished, we decided to release it as an online only album. If you have old-school 3D glasses please let us know if the 3D in our amazing artwork is working. We’re kind of curious.

1. This Man is a Time Bomb

PBP011: ÞÓRIR GEORG – Janúar CS/CD-R (2012)

pbp — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:55:44 +0000

Janúar is ÞÓRIR GEORG’s second release under that name. This one is quite different from the minimalistic and folky Afsakið. While still quite laid back, Janúar is a cold post-punk record with THE CURE inspired melodies and a neo-folk tinge.
