New web site feature and new dates...
Fresh from their sold out club tour last week, which culminated in a riotous show at the Camden Barfly on Friday night (24th January) – the band have confirmed a further 15 dates for April and March. PLEASE NOTE HOWEVER, the London show has moved from the 10th April at the Marquee (because of uncertainty surrounding this venue) to the 7th April at the Mean Fiddler. Tickets for the Marquee are NOT valid for the new date and refunds should be obtained from the place of purchase.
The band have also added a new feature to their website, and are now providing a weekly update on matters close to their heart. As fans of the band will be aware, OMS are very opinionated and will now outline their thoughts on various subjects at www.oneminutesilence.com… This week: war sequels, T.WA.T. (The War Against Terrorism) and why we should boycott Britain and the US.
The limited edition, John Leckie and John Cornfield produced Revolution Ep is released this week, and the band release their 3rd album "One Lie Fits All" later this year. There will be another single out to tie in with the March / April dates...

Kings Cross! Are you ready to be freaked out! This was an TOP GIG...
Let's start on a downer: Their name, it is RUBBISH. There are SIX of them, that is rubbish. They are look like an indie boyband, that is rubbish. One of them (guitarist Tom Bellamy) was playing whilst sitting on the floor messing about with some mad scientist gadgets. They are from the PROVINCES (Wokingham, near Reading). Just about everything about them them screamed NO. You might have heard that they sound a bit like Radiohead / Pink Floyd, which has got to send any sane person running, and yet...
The music was an amazing blast of power. And other such cliches. Bits of Stone Roses, Primal Scream, the good early bits of Mansun, in fact the good bits of everyone. Noodley, multi layered, swirladelic, but stomping and ROCK too.
I'm loath to go too over the top, as I have a habit of bigging up truly embarrassingl bands, like Kula Shaker and Heavy Stereo, and living to regret it, but I am RIGHT looking forward to seeing them again. Possibly TONIGHT, supporting Snow Patrol, at Higbury Garage.
It was a bit of an "industry" type of gig, though not the band's first London show (earlier this year the Bull and Gate called them "psyched out SFA tinged rock", fair play). John Leckie was there, also Terry Hall, Matt Bellamy from Muse (relation? I don't know) and ALL OF BAXENDALE! It was very exciting.
Also saw a "supergroup" last night at the Monarch, made up of (wait for it) a Shed Seven, an Audioweb, and a Seahorse. They unfortunately didn't impress at all, but I'm prepared to accept that's because they were shadowed by the brilliance of The Cooper Temple Clause, and not because they are made up of a Shed seven, an Audioweb and a Seahorse. They got a good reaction, generated a buzz, and will surely do well.
Back to Cooper Temple Clause. Go and see them, or I will FITE YOU.
