New Shits!

2008-08-09T21:08:00.005+01:00

Greetings friends, its been a shitting long time since i last kept up this blog but that is now gonna change! We've some exciting developments since the last post i can fucking tell you! Most exciting of all are our 3 new members who've joined at various points since Feburary, pretty much completing the line-up. First up is Void on Guitar who i've known since we were younglings back in the Wigmore Sector. It was actually he who showed me my first chords on a guitar and also he who used to jam Nirvana covers with me after school in the music room. Its a pretty strange and long arching wheel of fate that has brought him into the band but i can safely say now he's in it, it will never be the same again. The same can definately be said for our sister Adelle who has brought an incredible huge amount of energy to everything we do now- as anyone whose seen our recent show can testify! Last but not least is Gory who is a very recent addition indeed. Germ and i knew Gory from our uni days and it was he who got me in to play bass for November Coming Fire so now he's returning the favour by playing it for us. He's always been a total dude and we're all very excited to have him with us.

Our next show is going to be on Friday 26th of Feburary at Shunt which is the unbelievably awesome club in the Napoleonic vaults 'neath London Bridge station. We actually played there last year but this should be extra awesome as its a curated night and will not only include some dressing up but will also be GGGGGory's first show with us! More details of that and more shows soon....

Happy New Year!

New year sucks balls, but i still hope you all had an acceptable one.

Our first 'Demo' as a 'Real' band should be heading our way as soon as its done mixing itself and we've got a few shows coming up soon which is more than we usually have to talk about. One of said shows is with our long time friend Martin The Train Chronicles whom we enjoy very much. He'll be playing a free show next week at Barden's Boudoir (see below).

Welcome to the new blog of The Sans Pareil. We'll be updating it shortly with news about gigs etc and also how you can get your hands on our recently recorded new four track demo recorded at The Innerstation by Ben Phillips. That should be up around the new year and before then i'll be posting up the artwork to it plus a few demo things we've been working on!

Until the next post enjoy this prime slice of Apocalypto/Folk/Garage/Doom from Current 93, recorded live in Tokyo in 1988! Apparently this song was only released on the 'Emblems: the menstrual years' collection which is nigh impossible to find, so if anyone knows of a copy, let me know.
