Hardcore_Punk_Melodic


Second City present So Far Away + Deal With It + Honour Amoung Thieves + Tell Them Nothing + Twelve Nail Headache + Unbound

So Far Away are a 5 piece band from ASCHAFTENBURG started in 2005. From that time on the band created a melodic hardcore sound in the vein of bands like BANE, KILLING THE DREAM, IGNITE, MODERN LIFE IS WAR, STRECTCH ARMSTRONG, FINAL FIGHT, SET IT STRAIGHT.

After a line-up change they’ve tried to play as many shows a possible to get more people involved in their music and to do what they can do best: Burn down the stages in almost every state of Germany, other countries in Europe and through a small tour in the US.

They’ve shared the stage with bands like COLD WORLD, RISE AND FALL, KILLING THE DREAM, BANE, IGNITE, BOYSETSFIRE, VERSE ALLEGIANCE and many more.

With their positive attitude developed from a STRAIGHT EDGE lifestyle and their lyrics dealing with the problems of life, they will catch your attention, and once you’re in you will never get out.

At the end of April 2007 they released an EP called ALL ALONE on GUIDELINE RECORDS. This year they have also signed to DOUBLExCROSSED RECORDS who will put out their new spilt CD with POST COLLAPSE.

Platform Promotions present The Tounges + Old Ions + The Sculptors
The Tounges: In the Summer of 2007, off the strength of their debut EP, ...As seen on TV...,
The Tongues made it as a TOP 6 FINALIST (Out of over 1300 bands) in the Independent Music World Series West!

The Tongues are now recording a debut full length album and are touring Europe in April and May of 2008.

The EP ‘As seen on TV’ comments:

"Though only five tracks long, ...as seen on TV... shows how far The Tongues can reach, musically speaking. The Oakland group’s debut EP runs the gamut from upbeat, danceable pop-rock (think new Brit rock/pop invasion without the attitude) to catchy punk (like a slightly softer version of The Vandals or Bad Religion) to languid, lamenting rock." -Performer Magazine

Venue: The Hare and Hounds, High Street, Kings Heath
Time: 8pm start
Cost: £4 in
