The Pink Toothbrush says "CHECK THIS VU VU VULTURES VIDEO"

VU VU VULTURES release new single "I'll Cut You" on Popular recordings and us at the Pink Toothbrush think this is quite possibly the best thing we have heard in a long time

I'll Cut You - Vuvuvultures (Official Video) from Popular TV on Vimeo.

London-based Vuvuvultures (VVV) have been swiftly yet subtly building momentum since their conception in 2011, having developed into a cult-status live band, VVV take over warehouses and host multi-faceted collective parties called ‘The Island’. From the self-made artwork, to half of east-London rocking the synonymous symbol t shirts; from the weird and wonderful videos, to the semi-nude, paint-drenched performances, VVV have established themselves as one of the most creative and innovative bands to emerge in the past year. With support from 6music, XFM and Amazing Radio, ‘I’ll Cut You’ is taken from the brilliant ‘VVV EP’ released earlier this year (5* from Artrocker, “suavely seductive”). The EP deftly represents the ease and variance of songwriting and production that the band execute - acting as an impressive taster for this first standalone single. VVV have been featured in BEAT, 1883, Vogue, Wonderland, as well as a whole host of tastemaker fashion and music blogs such as The Recommender, “…they have some fresh ideas and lots of style. This isn’t just another guitar band. Introducing the dangerously beautiful and charismatic frontwoman, Harmony Boucher, who leads from the front, which is an essential ingredient”. JUNE 17th – ECLAF, Village Underground, LDN 22nd – Magnet Club, BERLIN 27th – Oporto, LEEDS 28th – Trof, MANCHESTER 29th – Bungalow & Bears, SHEFFIELD 30th – Oakford Social Club, READING JULY 01st - DV8, YORK 07th – SINGLE LAUNCH / The Island, TBA 13th – Atlantico Live, ROME 14th – Lottarox Summer Festival, ITALY By creating, working and living together, VVV have become a close unit; though unlike many of their London musical-peers, each member brings an individual musical taste and outlook from their native countries and past experiences. Fronted by Australian-born model, Harmony Boucher, the band formed upon a chance meeting with Brazilian bassist, Nicole Marie Bettencourt Coelho; one rehearsal later with South Africans Paul Ressel (guitar, production) and Matthew Christensen (drums), and Vuvuvultures was born.

THE SMITHS REUNION !!!!!

The Smiths, widely regarded as THE seminal British band, are to throw their differences aside and return to the live stage this autumn. The legendary songwriting partnership comprising of musical luminaries Morrissey and Marr are set to make a return after finding common ground. It will be the first time that Manchester's independent monoliths, who were signed to London's Rough Trade label, have graced a stage since their acrimonious split in 1987. Legal wranglings in the band saw other members, Andy Rourke (bass) and Mike Joyce (drums), sue with varying degrees of success. This announcement comes after a source revealed that the 80s icons had been in talks to perform with a well-known promoter. The decision was said to have been made after fellow Mancunians, The Stone Roses, gave in and reformed. The Smiths had previously turned down a lucrative offer of over 76 million pounds to tour the US. Watch this space...
