Yet another instalment of energetic noise this October with a feast of a show headlined by Hydrahead Records (also home of: Pelican, Jesu, Isis, Botch) almighty Daughters! Fresh from a stint of dates with The Fall of Troy this frenetic quintet will be hitting Sunderland’s Independent on the 12th October to rip it up on a stage with Sweden's Grizzly Twister and the region’s very own D.I.Y legends, Lavotchkin.
This is another showcase for the uncomprimising, cutting edge of modern metal takes us Portions for Foxes lot back to our heady days sticking on the likes of Wives (who are now defunct and have went on to form NO AGE, and recently signed to none other than Sub Pop!), The Hope Conspiracy and Whores Whores Whores.
The most recent Daughters album, the chaotic, swaggering and clinically insane Hell Songs (Hydrahead, 2006) frantically flings short spiked tracks at the listener in a way that is both rhythmic and robotic, by assigning the melody of the tracks to their bass and bass drum.
“Daughters' uneasy marriage of Pussy Galore-cum-Locust attitude mirrors what they're attempting on Hell Songs: A unity of two different avant-gardes united mostly by a desire for shock and aural awe. The resulting songs might even work too well-- together, the disparate elements of grind and trashcan-rock come together so naturally that the result is almost conventional, which one has to think isn't really their intent. Forgive them for trying to freak us out: In the process, they've stumbled on to something.”

On October 12th can we expect a selection of tracks from Daughters’ previous releases, including Canada Songs (2003's more straight up but no less ear-bursting grindcore debut), we can hope for a preview of some of the upcoming tracks that will feature on the release of their third LP, due in 2008.
