News The Neu Bulletin (6th September 2012)

Here exists your daily dose of gig news and new artists to check out. Be sure to have a flick through our other bulletins from this week. You’re too late for the show details, but you’re never too late to check out the new artists we’re recommending.

WHO’S PLAYING WHERE? Old Blue Last is once again the venue in London for buzz bands to make a name for themselves. Tonight Childhood join G R E A T W A V E S as non-London based Neu favourites receive the plaudits.

Family Of the Year play the Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen. Details here.

And Early Ghost support First Aid Kit at the Boileroom in Guildford.

WHO’S MAKING WAVES? Braves make sun-kissed beach-pop of a slacker standard (call that a compliment, by the way), encompassing all the vibes home city Perth in Western Australia encompasses. Heavy regulation, really annoyingly big houses and a hell of a lot of affluence, but man, does Perth have vibes. Plaudits have come from the Flashlight Tag blog, amongst others. So take notice.

Saw You by Braves

FURTHER NEU BUSINESS

It was only yesterday that we were telling you all about how Honeyblood, one of our favourite bands, were being brought along for the scuzz pop ride that is Deap Vally’s current UK tour. Turns out they also took along these guys, The Death Rays of Ardilla, for a couple of dates. The above video for ‘Diamonds’ is a brilliantly hellish brush with death; a psychotic, post-punk introduction that you’re unlikely to forget.
