Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

fierce panda Fierce Panda put out an Emo compilation... Andy Malcolm gets angry. Plus there's a Rock compilation too.

Fierce Panda release two more 6 track E.Ps. The Emo compilaiton titled 'Go' will feature tracks from Jimmy Eat World, Stapleton, Kids Near water, Jet Plane Landing, San Quentin and Econoline's 'Topology'.

Whilst the Rock comp called 'Mosh' will feature the The Suffrajets, Elviss, Tung, Reuben, and two other acts.

The idea is that they will be a limited release on double 7" that will get deleted straight away, then released together on one CD called 'Mosh and Go' with all 12 songs on. Nice huh?

As well as that release Econoline release another single on Seriously Groovy it features the songs 'I'm plagued', 'Too much sleep', and 'YourName'.

Plus they're going on the road too! The dates are:

September
1st - Oxford Zodiac (Audioscope charity all dayer raising funds for Shelter) More details here
15th - ROTA @ Notting Hill Arts Centre (w/ The Dudley Corporation and Jet Johnson) FREE afternoon show
17th - Peterborough Old Locomotive (w/ Engine Down and The Green Acre)
22nd - Newcastle Stout Fiddler (w/ Skip Day toner)
23rd - Glasgow 13th Note Cafe (w/ Tungsten Lung)
28th - London the Underworld (w/ The Lapse and The last of the real hardmen)

They also told their mailing list that "in ROCKtober we will do some dates for the Fierce panda business as well some other choice supports and hopefully get round to finishing our new album tentatively titled 'music is stupid'."

Oh and Ian told me that "We're also contributing to a covers record on Jonson Family called 'The Two Minutemen' we're doing a sludge rock version of "Ain't talking bout love" by Van Halen (also covered by the minutemen on double nickels on the dime)"

Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

an emo comp featuring precisely zero emo bands? crikey, that's clever. ;o)

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

Why aren't they 'emo'? Jimmy Eat World have been described as 'emo' for years since it's become a fashionable genre name to drop.

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

because it's just guitar based pop music. rock music in fact. thats not emo.

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

melodic pop / rock = not emo.

the UK is horribly misinformed when it comes to the word emo, so i am here to save you all!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

Hooray for Andy M' tell them again we're indie rock not emo I never said we were, hurrah!

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

we'll beat them yet, ian!

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

Maybe this needs a defining article Andy??

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

nah. it's not a particularly important issue. just funny to wind people up! i mean, no-one is going to stop calling jimmy eat world an emo band just because some arse like me says that they're not!

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

I will Andy, I hear and obey oh master. We got a keyboard (farfisa) to fuck about with. We want to move away from emo rock towards a more seaside funfair orientated direction that's right, Brighton rock. arf

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

now there's a merch idea for ya, a stick of rock with 'econoline' running all the way through it.

Re: Another TWO Fierce Panda 6-Track E.Ps

that's a fucking winner.. I might set up a rock factory just to do those for bands that rules.
