“Epic, breathtaking and soul nurturing music” – ROCK SOUND
Electronic post-rock band Vessels return to Reading to play songs of their critically acclaimed debut album White Fields & Open Devices (8/10 - NME, 8/10 - Drowned In Sound, 8/10 - Rock Sound, 4/6 -Time Out, Gigwise 4/5) and new material.

“A thrilling Reading-based seven-piece... String section, sheets of Pink Floyd and Sigur Ros fed through the Radiohead filter” – THE WORD
A 7-piece pop-infused post-rock. Songs born of their broad range of influences from Elbow and Radiohead to Mogwai and Explosions In The Sky are accompanied by lush orchestral arrangements and the sincere falsetto vocals.
TALONS (Big Scary Monsters records)
http://www.myspace.com/gotalons
"One of the most promising instrumental bands in the UK" - CLASH
Forging the explosive energy of hardcore, the subtleties of post-rock and the fractured song structures and complexities associated with math-rock, Talons possess a fascinating sense of urgency and drive, with a sound that both soothes and savages in equal measure.
PHANTOM THEORY
http://www.myspace.com/phantomtheory
"First the White Stripes...then Death from Above 1979...then Blood Red Shoes...and now Phantom Theory." - BETHAN ELFYN, BBC RADIO 1
They’ve supported the likes of Hundred Reasons, Johnny Foreigner and Pulled Apart By Horses and have fine tuned their live set into a monstrous roar of fuzzed up mega riffs and bone shaking killer beats.
DJS
Spinning instrumental,post-rock, down-tempo electronica and some alternative favourites.
