Ulitmate Thrush



http://www.myspace.com/ultimatethrush

I can't let January pass without mentioning this band - I went to a gig by local promoters Cry Parrot at the start of the month to see Ben Butler & Mouse Pad and Ultimate Thrush were the headline act. It was in fact their very first public show and the crowd were very hyped up. Within second of kicking in the mosh pit erupted and we were exposed to the full force of one of the best bands I have seen in years. There's a video of that on their myspace and it's worth checking out to get some live flavour.

They thrash but they also groove and live they are a force to be reckoned with. I think they sound a bit like the Jesus Lizard, but better. They have a ten track EP for download from Winning Sperm Party, and I urge anyone with a liking for harder rock to check it out, you will not be disappointed. It looks like they've now been booked for Optimo too, that's gonna be an amazing gig!
