    Presenting, in mind boggling 3D vision;

    BURNING SKIES
    After almost 9 years of torturing peoples ear drums across Europe Burning Skies have called it a day, come grind one last time.

    SHAPED BY FATE
    Recently on tour with the mighty Crowbar. A bunch of bad tempered m*****f***ers playing bad tempered music since 2001.

    AUSTERE
    Austere conjure a sonic maelstrom that draws similarities to This Will Destroy You and Explosions in the Sky. Explosive Prog Metal!

    TRUE VALIANCE
    Their style could be best described as mosh meets melody and message, a combination of everything you loved about late 90s hardcore.

  2. Selling my Ernie Ball 500k 6165 stereo volume/pan pedal. Top industry standard pedal. Will either work as true stereo/dual mono volume or with a flick of the side footswitch a pan pedal.
    Unfortunately it needs a new spring/cord, I bought one and tried to fit it myself but I think I bought the wrong one as it seems too long. May just be me doing it wrong but if not a new spring/cord kit is only a fiver. It's otherwise in pretty much perfect nick. They are still £190 new, I'm just after £60 + postage which must be a bargain.






    I also have an older 25k 6167 stereo volume pedal which as far as I can tell is the same as the 6165 only without the pan function. Works absolutely fine with no visible wear to the cord so plenty of life left. Few superficial marks and some velcro on the bottom but working a treat. After £60 + postage for this one too as it's fully working.



    BOTH SOLD

  3. Ok, this is really really stupid and vain.
    I've long been massively in love with my Aguilar GS412's. They truly sound amazing and handle ANYTHING with ease. However, I'll hopefully soon be getting my V4 back from my tech and this will complete my otherwise all Ampeg rig consisting of my SVT, V4 and V4 4x12.

    As I have two GS412's, the pathetic vain part of me (pretty sizable) is thinking about trading one for an Ampeg 810 (ideally an 810AV) so it's all pretty and Ampegy.
    I'm not really planning on using two GS412's anymore anyway as one just get's used for high end and although it looks neat it's just ridiculous overkill.

    You could have your pick of two, they have both been toured quite a lot so have a few cosmetic marks if you look closely and the rear handles have some paint loss but they both still sound incredible. All the carpeting is still intact so it's nothing you'll spot on stage. One has had the castors replaced at some point and the other used to belong to Paul Turner (bought it off eBay and ended up picking it up from J-Kay's place!). They both have Aguilar padded covers too which cost over £100 a pop.

    These cabs are honestly way way better than the Ampeg 810's, truly and they're a lot easier to move around too. I must be mad although I will keep one in case I come to my senses.

    I'm ideally after a US made 810av but will probably consider an 810e too. Will also consider a 610HLF but would want to try it out first really. Not bothered about cosmetic wear.
    Will probably want a bit of cash my way too depending on what you have and condition. I'm based in Bristol.

    Pics to come, all the pics I have were taken in my dark rehearsal room where they just look like featureless indistinct black boxes.

  4. My band ANTA are off on a few dates over the next week to promote our debut album 'The Tree That Bears The Equine Fruit'. You want to hear it? Hey, this is no problem. The recording is available in its entirety to stream on Bandcamp, which can be found here:

    [url="http://www.anta.me.uk"]http://www.anta.me.uk[/url]

    Though to save you the time & effort we'd describe it as monolithic, proggy and “seismically hypnotic”. Originally released in a handmade package with linocut artwork and a printed sleeve, it was later picked up by Diogenes (an imprint of INVADA Records) and sold as a beautiful limited edition release.

    People have said the following about the album:

    “If there’s ever a sequel to ‘Suspiria’, ANTA must do the soundtrack. Awesome.”
    Venue Magazine

    “The Tree That Bears The Equine Fruit’ is a direct rock hit, and you should let it take over your head.”
    The Joy Collective

    “Recommended in general to lovers of heavy psych”
    Prog Archive

    People have described our live shows as:

    “Anta’s symphonic doom is loud and slow, anchored by deliciously disciplined treacle bass and Alexander Thomas’s minimalist keyboards, regal and cyclic...like vast granite wheels implacably grinding human bones.” Venue Magazine

    “Pure Nouveau Prog with a real sense of adventure.. Fantastic stuff.”
