Waiting Room Promotions presents
Castrovalva - http://www.myspace.com/castrovalvamusic
“Bass pumps through amps set to levels that make the soundman’s eyes roll and the drums are given the kind of beating that yer regular punch up victim can’t relate to.” - PlanB Magazine


Shield Your Eyes - http://www.myspace.com/leavethetapesrunning
“Shield Your Eyes take no prisoners with their rush of tappy, stop-start jittering clatter. At times, it’s as if they’re trying to deliberately sound out of tune, which only adds to the appeal of the squeals and yowls emanating from the guitarist, which are truly marvellous.” - keepitfast.com

Shield Your Eyes began in 2006 and has Tobias Hayes (formerly of semi-popular post hardcore band Meet Me In St Louis, Shoes and Socks Off and Strobe 45,), Eddy Grimes a.k.a Henri George (Bottlenose Dolphins) and Stef Ketteringham (Strobe 45, Guns or Knives and Push to Fire)

Together they play music of the indescribable (note: unique) punky post-hardcore loud noisy beasty guitar riffs in melodic lo-fi beautiful ways with grinding time changes. Sometimes instrumental (like post rock on LSD) sometimes not (like grown men shouting at grown men & women liking being shouted at) in 3 minute sessions of bliss.

Hoarder Myna - http://www.myspace.com/hoardermyna
Local Leeds quirky prog music, soon to recording their debut EP

Amateur Assassins - http://www.myspace.com/amateurassassins
“Amateur Assassins music appears to walk a knife edge, which at points makes me question whether this is meticulously rehearsed, or improvised, neither of which would be a bad thing. After a brief moment of re-composure the band launch onto their last number which is more insular in performance with all members facing each other, until the climax to their set was the smashing of a guitar.” - Stokesounds.com
