Jay Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 Frank Turner Gallows some band called The Ziggens I have only just heard of The Draft The Falcon and my current favourite The Nightwatchman Like a modern day johnny cash Tom Morello from RATM and an acoustic guitar but an awesome album!!
The People's Hero Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 Are Elle Milano new? Not a big fan but thought they'd been about a while.
Jay Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 Are Elle Milano new?Not a big fan but thought they'd been about a while. were you still loitering around the OS when Loz was posting he run that online fanzine atomicduster! (hows that for a memory!!) Elle Milano were the Leicester band he managed and got onto the Steve Lamaq show not sure if he still manages them
The People's Hero Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 were you still loitering around the OS when Loz was posting he run that online fanzine atomicduster! (hows that for a memory!!) Elle Milano were the Leicester band he managed and got onto the Steve Lamaq show not sure if he still manages them I remember him, but nothing about him managing Elle Milano. Perhaps thats where I heard about them. Have certainly known of them for a fair while. Didn't realise they were a Leicester band though.
General Smuts Posted 5 July 2007 Author Posted 5 July 2007 Elle Milano are not brand new no i've been into for a while since the 2nd of November says my iTunes but i've recently got back into em and assumed not many people would've heard of them and called my bluff in the same way you could have about The Maccabees or Winterkids. Coincidently Winterkids and Elle Milano are co-headling at either Firebug or Sumo very soon 27th i think but don't quote me and would definately be worth the ticket price.
Craig Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 Elle Milano, Maccabees and Jack Penate are certainly not new. Look See Proof - they're newish and they're amazzee!
Unit Posted 5 July 2007 Posted 5 July 2007 Just got back from Jack Penate at the Charlotte, wasn't sure if he'd be any good but he was pure class, i'm VERY impressed.
