Stateless

July 15th, 2006

I went to see Stateless play at the HiFi Club in Leeds last night with a couple of old workmates. The sound wasn’t particularly good, but those fellas are tight! I’m just impatiently waiting for the album to come out now.

Go and check ‘em out.

Imagine Portishead with Jeff Buckley singing, more scratching, and gorgeous backing vocals.

    Who the fuck would want to listen to that? I hated Portished first time round!

    You don’t know what you’re missing out on!

    Is that Havas’s boyfriend’s band?

  4. Dave Says:

    I’m pretty certain he’s the dude, yeah.

    I didn’t see Catherine there. It was pretty busy, though and I was chatting a lot when they weren’t on.

    Good night! Shame I woke up with a stinker of a head on Saturday :(

    …you’ll have her guts for garters.

    I don’t get what that means.

    You actually wear her guts as a garter? What the fuck is a garter?

  7. Chris Says:

    Catgut is a material used for the strings of musical instruments and for surgical sutures, made of the dried twisted intestines of sheep or horses, but not cats. It does not require a huge leap of the imagination to move from that understanding to the voicing of a threat to visit the same fate on the intestines of someone who is annoying you.

    garters, in my experience, are either things that hold up socks, with little tassles (used to wear them in cubs)- or those things that brides wear around their thigh in a “provocative” way.

    Personally, I’d rather not use someone’s guts for either job. Even if they had pissed me off.
