With red eyes and raised fists, the rock n roll juggernaut known as Racebannon has lumbered out of Indiana and assasinated eardrums-execution-style with its underpaid and underemployed audio-sonic-mind****. In their nine years of existance they've had records out on respected American independents such as Alone, Level Plane and Secretly Canadian (where they bizarrely share the roster with the likes of Antony & the Johnsons, Swearing At Motorists and Songs: Ohia), and their sound has been described as a hybrid of of Gravity hipsters Antioch Arrow, Captain Beefheart/Mr. Bungle controlled spontaneity, Melvins/Blue Cheer sludgy heaviosity, and Melt Banana-like noisy spazz.

For the unitiated, Battleship has been tearing up the Bay Area and beyond for a few years now. Their frothy brew of Black Label Flag vs Birthday Party Cake, post-everything-core delights and terrifies most who witness it. Throbbing rhythm section of Gene “Bean” Bae on bass and Joe Haener on drums (now Drew Eastman), asylum-style vocals of Aleks, and the fuzz-drill of guitarist Daniel Martens self-destruct into “the modern day, quintessential West Coast Punk experience."

Galway's The Boy You Hit Is Dead bring their mix of mid-paced moody metal and hectic thrashing noise back to Dublin. Featuring members of (thebandformerlyknownas..) Dein Kampf, Easpa Measa and Summer Disease, they'll definitly go some way to preparing your eardrums for the RaceShip onslaught.

Little is known of shadowy garage-rockers Lungs. Having de-flowered themselves at April's Rock N Roll Mother****er weekend, they are preparing for an August Irish tour with Threads. With one third of the mighty Oak in tow, you can expect some degree of sub-zepplin cock rock.
