part of the Biennale of Sydney 2010

An evening of heavy ecstasy with
Machine Death
Mandala Trap
Gail Priest (guest programmer)

Machine Death is Ben Byrne & Ivan Lisyak creating new wave sludgecore that’s so nasty it’s sublime.
Mandala Trap is Jeff Burch (Songs) & Paul Gough (Pimmon) in a duel of epic electronic layerings and shimmering guitar.
Gail Priest interweaves dirty machinic rhythms, glassy cascades and sweet tortured vocals.

8pm for 8.30 start FREE!
Artspace - The Gunnery Building
43-51 Cowper Wharf Road Woolloomooloo

Feel free to book so we can feel the love in advance!

Fear of Stranglers Review
The lovely people at Furthernoise have reviewed my EP- CDR Fear of Stranglers

Gail Priest has been exploring the timbre and elasticity of sound in a way that has become distinctly her own…[Fear of Stranglers] shows her taking her vocal and sonic manipulations to new levels of textural improvisation and processing…Treading a tightrope between darkness and light, texture and space, Priest creates sound worlds that never feel too gloomy or melancholic. It is this duality in her work which keeps refreshing her sound and charting new directions. (Roger Mills, Furthernoise June 2010)
