Electricity In Our Homes

Floated on the stock market in summer 2007, Electricity In Our Homes have already proved to their shareholders that they are at the forefront of London's upcoming surge of original and creative bands. With their art-house tendencies, a minimal sound and short sharp shows, they are a fine quartet in the tradition of some of the most interesting no-wave and post-punk acts, such as: Lizzy Mercier, Mars, DNA, Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, Josef K, The Fire Engines.

KASMs

London, UK
2007 Kasms are Rachel-Mary Callaghan, Gemma Fleet, Scott R Walker and Rory Brattwell, they make make melancholic yet frantic alt-punk and the singer has a habit of knocking over audience members and doing summersaults, how sweet. KASMs met in October 2007 when the four band members got into a drunken row at a cash point in Dalston, it didn't quite come to fisticuffs and details are vague and vary from person to person but it involved a bendy bus, a kebab and a pigeon.
They then randomly bumped into each other a week later at a Get Hustle show and put our differences aside.
