stuffy/the fuses support recent Club Fandango offshoot label, Cool For Cats, signings Fight Like Apes. Excellent news!
Thu 20th Windmill Brixton presents:
*Stuffy & The Fuses
*Fight Like Apes

STUFFY & THE FUSES (London)
Stuffy is a dummer. He's a good drummmer. That's probably why he sits at the front, which is also a goood place to see his bizarre facial expressions and gravity defying leaps as well as an anti-hero charm and some nifty manoeuvres with the sticks. Meanwhile the Fuses (Jen, Jon and Lucy) knock out some superb twisted pop as evidenced on their fine new album - 'Angels Are Ace - which was recorded at Abbey Road by a certain Steve Albini. www.myspace.com/stuffythefuses
FIGHT LIKE APES (Dublin)
One of the buzz bands in Ireland right now, female-fronted noisekids FLA return to London to blag up their debut single that's out on on Fierce Panda's little sister label, Cool For Cats. Ostensibly a new wave punk band, they however give a nod or two toward the likes of Sonic Youth, Pavement and My Bloody Valentine and then often steep the whole damn thing in synths and hot fuzz. In other words they're impossible to pin down and also very much ones to watch. www.myspace.com/fightlikeapesmusic -

The End of the Road team is back for their monthly knees up with live bands and DJs to keep the spirit of the festival going until September... book your tickets for the festival early to avoid disappointment. This month we're very excited about hosting the brilliant CONGREGATION, hailing from the New Cross bedsit scene looking like a couple of gangsters from the depression era, Congregation have lately been injecting the Blues and R&B genre with a heavy dose of class and soul. Benjamin Prosser (Slide Guitar, Bass drum) and Victoria Yeulet (vocals, leg bells) play the kind of raw, slinky and seductive blues that have the power to restore one's faith in the genre. Also playing are TELEGRAMS, most probably one of the best unheard of bands you'll ever see!!? Remember you saw them here first... + just confirmed STUFFY/THE FUSES. Doors open at 7pm and it's only £5 to join the party!
