    The Shills

    Event: The Shills
    Venue: Portland Arms, The
    Date: 24 May 2008 - 20:00
    Event details: Bulldozers & butterflies. The Shills walk a fine line between delicate beauty and jolting, body shaking rock. Formed in early 2004, they have been cultivating a sound built from exacting musicianship & creative flexibility. The Shills have just released their self titled debut LP. The ten songs on the album are a diverse and dynamic display of the young band maturing and hitting their stride. Whether the slashing stomp of "Slackjaw America," or the danceable textures of "Big Indifference," The Shills deliver a stand out debut. The Shills draw on a wide range of influences such as The Beatles, Soundgarden, Radiohead, Pearl Jam, Jeff Buckley, Queen, Queens of the Stone Age, Pedro The Lion and many more. With a nod to the past The Shills are making accessible yet challenging new sounds. As a live act The Shills have built a solid following throughout the Boston and New York areas. Their passion and precision on stage will draw you in leave a lasting impression.

    Fighting With Wire

    Event: Fighting With Wire
    Venue: Portland Arms, The
    Date: 12 May 2008 - 20:00
    Event details: Fighting With Wire emerged from the ever creative Northern Ireland music scene in 2003, the brainchild of guitarist Cahir O'Doherty (Jetplane Landing / Clearshot) and drummer Craig McKean (Clearshot). An idealistic bunch, they've since done what rock bands are meant to do: they wrote a bunch of songs, and took to the road. The last three years has seen them play shows with the likes of Reuben, Biffy Clyro, Million Dead, Seafood, YCNI:M and Future Of The Left, racking up hundreds of miles and honing their live show into a ferocious explosion in the process. After putting out a number of limited edition DIY singles, they took a breather at the end of 2006 and finally started work on their longawaited debut album. Recorded in Northern Ireland and finally completed in mid-2007, Man Vs Monster is a dynamic beast of a record - raging out of your speakers one moment yet gentle and intricate the next, and all without losing focus of what's important: the song. What's next for Fighting With Wire? More touring and more songs, we would expect.
