Testing the waters. I'm putting on a show on New Year's and I'm looking for an opener. Right now, the lineup consists of a non-typical hardcore band that sounds kind of like Young Widows (cowards!), a kind of techy band that sometimes gets into calm atmospheric territory (paris on a good day), sludgy dissonant jams (sixbrewbantha), and -maybe- a slightly lighter but still sassy band (cobras cobras cobras). There are plenty of other bands I could ask, but I'm just curious if there are new bands popping up that might be kind of fun and would suit this. The show is going to be for all ages and at a fairly small venue.

So reply or email if you have a fun or interesting project on the go with a full set of material.

Not looking for "myspace bands", bands like Fableway, vocal harmonies, anything acoustic, wannabe rock stars, anything emulating bands on the Zone or the Q or Muchmusic, fledgling punk side projects that need practice and don't have a full set of material, singer/songwriters that obviously don't fit the bill, etc. - Sat, 1 Nov 2008 11:49pm Edited: Sat, 1 Nov 2008 11:53pm

Shit, just realized what Tyler this is so I now have to re-write my entire message. The October Crisis would love to play the show. I've been in Montreal but we hella want to play shows for december with mostly new material. I guess its progressive rock that heads in the metal/hardcore direction but also strays really far from it. cool, I'll be there either way. - Thu, 20 Nov 2008 4:08pm Edited: Thu, 20 Nov 2008 4:12pm

jeff I'm all about nerding out. but yeahh no, there are five bands now.

hey harry! you guys sound a bit like hot cross and that's kind of cool. as I said to jeff, there are five bands playing now, and that's the number I want to keep it at. but I want to put you guys onto one of my shows in the future, maybe get troy (the action index) to. keep at it! - Fri, 28 Nov 2008 1:40am
