LEEDS: The Brudenell Social Club

THU 11TH DEC, 2008 7:30pm

iLiKETRAiNS play a special home town show at their adopted venue, The Brudenell Social Club, to preview new material and a possible new EP (Release date tbc.).

iLiKETRAiNS met in the Northern transport hub of Leeds, United Kingdom in the Spring of 2003.
Windswept platforms provide the inspiration, tales of fated Antarctic expeditions provide the lyrics, and a love of England, Iceland, complex visuals and leaves on the line provide the future for this quintet.
The debut single came in July 2005 - BEFORETHECURTAiNSCLOSE - a song in 2 parts, was released on Dance To The Radio. STAiNLESS STEEL had previously been contributed to DTTR’s debut compilation of Leeds bands
Later in the year came A Rook House For Bobby, backed with THE BEECHiNG REPORT released on the Kids label. This releae featured members of Shady Bard on additional orchestration and numerous Leeds music alumni in a choir (This Et Al, Napoleon IIIrd, Vatican Jet, Yellow Stripe Nine and more)
Mini album, Progress Reform followed on the Fierce Panda label in 2006, preceded by the Terra Nova single. This brought together most of the previously released material as well as some newly recorded songs
In early 2007, the band signed with Beggars Banquet and released a single Spencer Perceval (an obituary of sorts to the only assasinated Prime Minister of Britain)
Elegies To Lessons Learnt is iLiKETRAiNS’ first studio album, released on 1 October 2007. As with their EP, Progress Reform, many of the songs cover historical events, which the band are especially interested in.

Jeniferever is a band from Uppsala, Sweden. Their music could be described as ambient indie rock or post-rock; it is slow-paced, melodic, and frequently building to an orchestral-like climax. Their sound has been compared to bands such as The Appleseed Cast and Sigur Rós.
Their debut full-length Choose a Bright Morning was released on Drowned in Sound in early 2006, and their as-yet-untitled sophomore album is planned for a fall 2008 release, preceded by the single Nangijala.
