| target locked  | ive really lost touch with south wales music. www.myspace.com/theepaulettes are a merthyr band which i never really liked, but having seen them live a few times i really get it alot more. im not an indie fan at all, but they do make me wanna keep listening and watching...theyll be playing at the brecon jazz soon i think.

| i would say that Canivores of War are the only TRULEY original band kicking around locally. My favourites include (still) Midasuno, Corona Jones (RIP), Haddonfield, Freaky Fortnight, Jailbait and The Firebrand.

My Mood:  | Why didn't the Firebrand get a RIP? But locally I thought Jailbait and Corona Jones were awesome. Liking atm: Clay Statues, Stopmotion Men, Truckers Of Husk (may not be local but theyre all Welsh) |

Obviously i am doing the plugging for their ep, so i am a massive fan, but there is plenty of hip-hop in the South Wales area, albeit not all no where near as good as CoW. | |

My Mood:  | Is this ever or at the moment in time... Would say Flailing Wail (R.I.P) at the top an Corona Jones at the moment i cant say much is really floating my boat, not just musical wise, but visually, not seen much action on stage or any other bands i see just seem to not do much.. The guns are shit hot tho, an i really like the stop motion men, when we played with them they really blew me away, ticked all of the boxes. |

| target locked | id like to hear another guitar in there. i like how heavy and sluggish it is, and still uses quite a lot of tone:s is the best way i can describe it. reminds me of deftones meets throwdown. but yeah, if it had another guitar i think there would be alot more life. super theoretical arty farty post there^ |

| Le Gato of Spiridion! | The good thing about them though is that they have always stuck to their guns musically and played the same style of music since they were about 13!! They have gone from strength to strength and they really deserve it tbh. |

| D.I.Y - it's in the blood | Personally, I'm really feeling the bands and sounds coming out of the Pedigree Falcon nights at Clwb Ifor at the moment. The likes of Black Cesar (ex Mondo Trans Shop/Diablo), Zonderhoof, Suns Of Thunder, Death of her Money. It's nothing new, granted, but it's like REMF back in the day.  |
