SUNDAY 9 Glasgow

I The Dust Junkys, Wireless and Bosley The Cathouse, Union Street. 248 6606. 8pm. £3. Mancunian crossover combo who combine hip hop. funk. bigbeat and rock to create a rather stonking sound which can be heard on current single ‘Non Stop Operation‘.

I Manbreak, Glitterbox and A The Cathouse. Union Street. 248 6606. 8pm. £3.50. A triple bill touring the length and breadth of the country with endorsement from hard rock bible Kerrang. A are a speedy gonzalez thrash-punk sibling outfit whose album HowAee Are Buildings? has been described as ‘skate punk rifferama’. Norwich's Glitterbox combine similarly full-on mania with more peaceful passages. while Manbreak have a melodic. even anthemic streak through their hardcore leanings.

I God's Boyfriend, Miss World and Smackvan The 13th Note. Glassford Street. 553 1638. 8.30pm. Free. See preview for East Kilbride quartet God's Boyfriend. Smackvan are the latest incarnation of The Passkeepers. whose slowcore atmospherics reach the parts that other bands can‘t.

Edinburgh

I The Dust lunkys and Bonafide The Venue. Calton Road. 557 3073. 8pm. £5. Kinda big beats meet indie-dance crossover stuff from this fierce Mancunian lot who count former 808

State rapper MC Tunes as one of their number. Think Black Grape (who they've just supported) meets the Ruthless Rap Assassins meets The Chemicals meets Hendrix meets Rage Against The Machine meets The Beasties. There. i bet that handy comparison has really made things a lot clearer for you. Listen out for the new single ‘Non Stop Operation‘. With support from Fife‘s Bonafide. who do a similar thing with hip hop beats and a rapping singer.

I Fleetwood Bac The Venue. Calton Road. 557 3073. 8pm. £5. Fleetwood Mac cover hand (no. seriously) who do the whole range from early bluesy Peter Green stuff right up to Rumours and all that lighter fare. Apparently. they all look pretty similar to the band too.
