Hatcham Social - Choppy, post-punk inspired guitar pop reminiscent of early Postcard Record's acts such as Orange Juice, and Echo And The Bunnymen's more upbeat moments.
Lord Auch - Raucous three piece with a curious mix of influences featuring ex members of Black Wire.
Collapsing Cities - New Zealanders Collapsing Cities play spiky indie post punk, with sharp lyrics and equally slick tunes.
Fight Like Apes - What happens when four highly motivated couch potatoes trawl through the b-movie underworld in search of the purest of gold? They Fight Like Apes! Hailing from Dublin and weighing in at over 600 pounds, Fight Like Apes combine the synth with the sword in this heroic tale of anger, jealousy, greed and ...goblins. With an emphasis on loutish vocals, driving bass and digital distortion, Fight Like Apes are highly trained, armed and considered extremely dangerous. This is new wave punk with indie rock & shoegazing roots.
