Indica Ritual – Seamless Ejaculation / Alpha Male

Samizdat / Post Music,
Artist: Indica Ritual
First review By Matthew Britton
They’ve already played with HEALTH and Crystal Castles, but with their latest 7” Indica Ritual are really making huge strides. Currently in the process of recording their first album, the band’s two track single simply raises the weight of expectation upon their long player.
A joint venture by Samizdat and Post Music, this is a curiously eclectic release. What’s most surprising is the band’s location – their sound is one of industrial New York, place that brought us Battles and Liars, two massive influences upon Indica Ritual’s songs. But far from hopping around the lower-east side, they’re trotting around Liverpool and making some of the most exciting math rock you’re ever likely to hear from England’s North-West.
Though the intricate A-side ‘Seamless Ejaculation’ may have the better title and sound a lot like something you could’ve heard on ‘Mirrored’, but it’s ‘Alpha Male’ that really catches the eye. Filled with choice cuts of synth pop and the kind of chanting that Les Savy Fav would be proud of, it’s quirky and brilliant. 2010 is certain to bring bigger and better things for this bizarre quintet.

CHROME HOOF
‘When a twenty-legged tribe like Chrome Hoof takes the stage, you know there’s a party coming, even if you haven’t heard a single note from [them].’
Southern Records
‘Filthy disco-doom-electro-screamo-acid-metal-vaudeville-funk never sounded so good.’
BBC
MUGSTAR
“Armed to the teeth with an impenetrable front line armoury of feedback squalls and grizzled grooves, the scouse space cadets set their cosmic dials for un-chartered realms, the spectacle is one of unrelenting intensity”
Losing Today
THE LAZE
“Soundtracks perilous climbing up the ruins of collapsed skyscrapers piled on top of each other like victims of an architectural genocide, eventual climax reached with arrival to an unsteady summit from which the extent of the devastation can finally be grasped. Imagine the sky, and listen to it.”
20 Jazz Funk Greats
INDICA RITUAL
“Physically in Liverpool, where they’ve perfected a particularly picturesque strain of indie-dance. Spiritually on a plain where the synths roam like caribou, nibbling guitar bushes and occasionally swimming in a river of beats”
Plan B Magazine
DOGSHOW
“Once you experience Dogshow there is no way to eradicate them from your memory, nor from your impulses. A two man circus; a big-top of euphoric noise. Dance and you will be happy.”

Tues 8 December 2009, a.P.A.t.T. presents…
Terry Riley’s In C
Call for Musicians
A large ensemble of musicians drawn from across the city’s music scene – all backgrounds, interests and experiences welcomed – will take over the Bluecoat for a building-wide performance of Terry Riley’s mesmerizing minimalist masterpiece, In C.
United by a common tempo and responding to the collective poly-rhythmic sound, the musicians make their own ways through Riley’s 53 musical ‘units’ as the piece pulses through the Bluecoat.
a.P.A.t.T. – who are also composing new works for this one-off ensemble – are a Liverpool based musical collective. Recent projects include a full live score to Nosferatu commissioned by BBC Radio. www.apatt.com

Interested in joining the ensemble?
Contact Jon Hering: jonhering@hotmail.com
Worried about reading score??
Don’t!!! a.P.A.t.T. will provide a non-music-reader friendly score with notes clearly stated along the piece. This, along with several rehearsals should allow a musician with a basic understanding of their instrument access to the performance.
Conditions:
• You need to be over 18 and have basic music reading ability – although there’s nothing too tricky and you will have the score in advance.
• Unfortunately, due to the size of the envisioned ensemble, there is no fee available for performing – you’ll be doing it for the love of the music!
• You need to be technically self-contained – either fully acoustic or supplying your own (small) amplifier.
• You need to be able to commit to 2 practices (Sun 6 and Mon 7 Dec) and the performance (Tues 8 Dec), all at the Bluecoat.
• Deadline for expressions of interest is Friday 6 November.

Here is a snoop at some of this years set at YES WAY. A rather spiffing 2 day event at Auto Italia in London.
Loads of ace acts played and the whole thing was ran by Upset the Rhythm, who interestingly enough will be releasing a Split 12″ later in the year featuring a.P.A.t.T. and DJ Scotch Egg’s band ‘DRUM EYES’

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Paul McCartney is 6
World Exclusive.!!!
Today we can reveal according to Britain’s top scientists Paul McCartney is only 6 years old.
This astonishing revelation comes after years of us knowing our Macca as one the last remaining Beatles and after many many years success this latest report states he hasn’t even seen his seventh birthday yet.
It is believed he has had previous versions of himself now crushed and divorced of, and he is said to finally be happy using his real body and genetics. His next step is junior school, high school and maybe even onto L.I.P.A. to round up his music business modules.

For quite some, over several years, my esteemed associates and myself have been to Leeds more times than you can shake a stick at!
We have always been welcomed with open arms and ears and we have all made many wonderful lifelong friends. We have also been very lucky to be exposed to some of the most forward thinking music makers and promoters in U.K. This is by no way an exhaustive list as there are many MANY other fine acts from Leeds, that’s why so so ace! BUT its a firm try at highlighting some of our closest at heart. x
Your ‘you’ could do for worse than getting yourself familiar with this lot! Go! Spend the afternoon …..

![]() Keyboardist/drummer Richard Morris (also of Two Minute Noodles and Chops), bass player Stuart Bannister, and veteran drummer Neil Turpin (also of Bilge Pump) are the core unit of players/engineers whose music – typified by chirpy synth, droning rumbles of bass and a keen sense of groove — explores dynamics and refined interplay with a ceaseless, sprightly invention. Their self-titled EP and 7″, both produced by Richard Formby, are a winning seven-song introduction, throughout which the trio build upon a series of deceptively-simple ideas and offer intuitive responses, their individual contributions often subverting and off-setting (though never overwhelming) each other. And yet, their experiments are far more playful than studious, always respectful to the core elements of rhythm and sound while investing the whole instrumental (albeit guitar-less) “rock” shebang with a rare sense of fun. |

Beards have racked up a solid number of gigs since their inception in 2006 and were nominated by Plan B as one of the best support bands of 2007. They said… “Beards 2000’s day-glo retro mollusc outfits aren’t even the half of it. Devo basslines and bullish vocals turn the air blue while their creators hop from instrument to instrument and the world struggles to stand still around them. And not one of them has a beard.” They toured France, Italy, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Germany and Holland in December 2008 with Cleckhuddersfax and are ripening with age like a fine wine. |

![]() CHOPS does its own work for whoever will listen. We dispense with the repertoire of knowledge and experience that is presumed to be required to appreciate art. We replace the elite, intellectual pleasure of “getting it” with the egalitarian fun-house pleasure of disorientation, of trying to understand something that you cannot. CHOPS makes you as one in anxious, enjoyable failure. You may become aware of the vast perceptual resources that await your command just beyond the threshold of your knowing. These, of course, can only be inferred on the rare occassions when they fail to serve your purposes. CHOPS provides picnics for these occassions.
The following kind words were scribed by Upset The Rhythm. “CHOPS are a wild, damaged-dance band, who leapt from the cauldron of Leeds’ ever-evolving DIY musical stew and hit the ground running in 2007, hellbent on perfecting their spontaneous combustion of jazzoid excess and lock-popping party bombs. The power-trio married up their love of fidgety drum patterns, effect-drenched saxophone and synthesizer showdowns in such a way that every broken sound that swelled forth was caked in euphoria and creeped-out gravity. CHOPS don’t so much make music as radiate it. Their sound is playful, often making unprejudiced leaps in harmony, sometimes defying logic in their conscious pursuit of the futile and incoherent in an attempt to echo our modern everyday. However that doesn’t mean they are are random nonsense. Far from it, bold songs emerge from tumbling rhythmic soups, pulsing with life and purpose before they are sucked into another portal”. |

![]() Although the 1980s references come thick and fast in Printed Circuit reviews, thats only one aspect of the music she makes. Her attention to detail – and her determination to make each song better than the last – ensures innovative programming that gives her music life and provides a unique twist on the traditional synthpop sound. Where electronic music is often soulless, repetitive and cold, Printed Circuit is bright, melodic and carefully-crafted electronic pop. Claire Broadley began making music as a solo artist in June 1999, aged 19. During the next five years, she released records on labels like Tigerbeat6, Elefant, 555 and her own label, Catmobile. Influences are continually taken from diverse sources, most obviously from the Acorn Electron computer games of her youth, but the only real constant is her own ability to tessellate simple melodies into far more complex compositions. In more recent years, Andrew Raine (of Leeds 6 DIY infamy; Cops&Robbers, Brown Owl, etc) has become an integral part of Printed Circuit’s live shows, cemented by a 2 month world tour in 2005 to Japan, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. 2009 brings the arrival of a third member (we’ll leave that for Claire to announce), and a new album entitled ‘Control, Escape’ coming soon on Chinchilla-Tone and Catmobile! |

CISSY is from Leeds in the UK. Their sound is angular and scratchy post-funk from somewhere round the corner from the James Chance school. It’s polyrhythmic, unpredictable, joyful, and catchy, mixing elements of post-punk, new-wave, no-wave, and classic funk. Richard Formby, the Leeds-based engineer whose clients have included Herman Dune has engineered Cissy’s first five songs. Richard has described the band’s sound as ‘Captain Beefheart doing Afro-Beat’. Cissy features people who have played in The Lapse, The Dragon Rapide, Origami, Tigers!, Beards, and more. They have toured with San Francisco’s Origami and have played UK gigs with Cryptacize, James Chance and Les Contortions, DAT Politics, Fulborn Teversham, Orchestre Tout Puissant, Lovvers, played at Chinchillafest 2008 and loads more. Their first release is a split LP with Bill Dolan and his new band called Das Boton, featuring Tortoise drummer John Herndon and Matt Lux, to be released by Six Gun Lover Records ready for their UK/Euro tour in April 2009, news of which you can read below…

Lords deliver good vibes at exceptional volume. Their rock is both shonky and squidgy. They follow the ‘drunken master’ approach. They are one part 70s rock, one part euphoric free jazz, one part primitive blues, one part garage rock and one part DC hardcore. They are all parts love. They are no longer teenagers.They laugh hard in the face of woe and strife. One of them is a lifeguard. Their drummer’s real name is Elvis. Do not lend them your amplifierFIND OUT MORE
Soe’za are currently a seven-piece band, hailing from points along the M4 corridor, from Bristol to London. With a somewhat unorthodox line-up of two drum kits, two electric guitars, bass, French horn, Soe’za mix Can-esque grooves, and urgent guitars with two disparate yet complimentary singers in the shape of Ben Owen’s clear-voiced declarations and Jenny Robinson’s soulful melodies. The band twist this template in every conceivable direction, their command of the irresistible rhythm is second to none, with the French horn rounding out subtle modulations of mood.FIND OUT MORE
