FRI 4 JULY
The Filth
featuring
Lost Valentinos
With successful weekly residencies at
Bondi’s Beach Road and Will & Toby’s …
The Filth now comes to Sonar for some more
filthy fun with live music every friday night. This Friday feturers:
Lost Valentinos,
Kill Teen Angst (WA) and
The Vignettes.
From the moment they first took to a dusty stage in early 2005, Lost
Valentinos offered more than meets the eye. Behind the fashionable
aesthetics and manic demeanour stands a band intent on forging original
ground, a skittering shitstorm of punk fury, disco beats and
psychedelic excursions, the sonic invention of M83, Can and My Bloody
Valentine melding with the panty-poking fun of Wham!, The Pixies and
The Human League.
It was the band's live intensity that quickly endeared them to
audiences. With wiry frontman Nik slithering and exploding in a lusty
spectacle, the Santamaria brothers' fanning the flames with propulsive
rhythms and searing melodies, drummer Dan's breakneck brutality and
guitarist Jonno Ma's dissonant ambience, Lost Valentinos immediately
established themselves as one of the most exciting acts in
Sydney’s indie quarters. By the time their self-titled EP
(produced by Kim Moyes of The Presets) hit store shelves later in the
year, their up-and-coming reputation was solidified, with the EP's
initial pressing selling out in its first week of release and
publications such as Rolling Stone, Nylon and Vice UK hitting up the
band for their tear-jerking tale of success. Their first single, the
noirish and anthemic “Man With The Gun”, immediately
achieved high rotation on Triple J and earned the band a featured spot
on the station’s Next Crop segment.
With support slots with like-minded acts such as The Presets, The Liars
(US) and Datarock (Norway) under their collective belts, Lost
Valentinos have worked hard to spread their seed around the country. An
extended EP has just landed in Japan and a 12-inch featuring remixes of
their work by such fancy knob-twiddlers as Headman (Sui), Bang Gang
DJs, Van She and many more is set for release in the UK. A whole new
audience is set to discover the unique intensity of Lost Valentinos,
and all that’s left to do is Dance Or Die. We’d choose
Dance.
Doors: 7.30pm
The Vignettes: 8.30pm - 9.15m
Kill Teen Angst: 9.45pm - 10.30pm
Lost Valentinos: 11pm - 12am

SAT 5 JULY
Paper Champion
Showcasing
Paper Champion,
Nucleus &
Nina May; the gamut of alternative sounds, this will be a unique night of music with three top-quality bands. And all for $10!
Fresh off the stage after supporting some of Australia’s premier
rock acts at the 2008 Come Together Festival, Paper Champion bring
their diverse alternative sounds to Sonar to launch their brand new,
free digital single ‘Arrested’. After releasing a
critically lauded EP in ’07, ‘Arrested’ represents
the next evolution in Paper Champion’s sound, focussing on
stronger hooks and tighter rhythms while maintaining the band’s
trademark dynamic sound.
After being together for around 18 months, Paper Champion have shared
bills with a wide range of acts including Dead Letter Circus, The Red
Paintings, Mammal and Many Machines on Nine, as well as being invited
to be a part of the prestigious Come Together Festival.
Local progressive juggernauts Nucleus also join the bill, showcasing
new material from their second EP Circumvolution. Epic and powerful,
Nucleus’ music ebbs and flows, combining abstract grooves and
stadium-sized riffs with delicate, effects-laden melodies and a subtle
touch of electronic trimmings.
Rounding out the bill are Queensland rockers Nina May who come to
Sydney on the back of a formidable reputation, having supported The
Veronicas, Good Charlotte, Dead Letter Circus, Kisschasy and scoring an
enviable spot on MTV’s The Lair program last year. Incendiary
live shows are Nina May’s forte and they’re certainly a
band not to miss.
Doors: 7.30pm
Nina May: 8.30pm - 9.15pm
Nucleus: 9.45pm - 10.30pm
Paper Champion: 11pm - 12am
