Wet Nuns release new video for 'Heavens Below'

 The insatiable blues thunder of WET NUNS has been depicted in a recent music video containing moments of anger, animosity and sexy-80s-jeans-cut-offs-nothing-but-a-black-bra dancing. Delightful. Wet Nuns have recently been named in the ones to watch list of 2012 in the NME, good on ya lads. Its good to hear NME have discovered music with some heavy balls. The video was done by Sheffield-based director Darren Topliss who has invented videos for such bands as Buoys, Horses and Algiers. His work has included some really cool use of projectors and nifty editing skills. Keep an eye out for him in the future.

A couple of Big Spaceship gigs coming up: run,WALK! & Wet Nuns



run,WALK! (Holy Roar)
http://runwalk.bandcamp.com/album/peekay
Noisey hardcore band run,WALK! have been soldiers of the riff for quite sometime and have maintained an experimental and brutal approach to their music since their formation. These guys are no strangers to Leeds but if you have yet to see them play then be sure to check them out.

ANTARES (Holy Roar)
http://www.facebook.com/enjoyantares?sk=app_178091127385
These monsters of physical technicality will warp your fragile mind with their chaotic battery of progressive hardcore from the unfathomable realms of confusion. One sentence. That is all.

WE'LL DIE SMILING
http://welldiesmiling.bandcamp.com/
Awesome Leeds based 3 piece of the progressive hardcore persuasion, We'll Die Smiling have been around for a while and every now and again releasing an absolute fuckin' gem, never failing to impress with a creative streak that is apparent in many aspects of their music.

NO COAST
http://www.facebook.com/nocoastband?sk=app_178091127385
No Coast are a relatively new band but have set their standard from the very start. Their music is a cocktail of brutal punk hardcore grind and aggressive as fuck. Only one song available on their facebook page but be sure to give it a listen and make sure you come and see them play.

Big Spaceship Presents: Slabdragger / Wizard's Beard / Seven Headed Cobra +1 TBC

Big Spaceship Presents:

A night of riff-worshiping, 70's soaked doom and weirdo rock.


SLABDRAGGER (Holy Roar)
A 3 piece beastly experimental stoner band from London. We've all been pining after a bit of these guys since the arrival of their monstrous album 'Regress'. These guys will tear off your balls, replacing the contents of your scrotum with swollen spheres of steel and like a dwarf afoot a mountain, you will stand in awe.

Review: "Regress" by Slabdragger

A review of "Regress" by Slabdragger (Holy Roar)



If you were to delve into the apocalyptic womb of Heavy Metal, “Regress” is the colossal beast that you would find. It is summoned here in a valiant crusade to save Heavy Metal, its leaders and its adversaries.
This beast will tear off your balls, replacing the contents of your scrotum with swollen spheres of steel and like a dwarf afoot a mountain, you shall stand in awe. Slabdragger strike upon various nuances of stoner, doom, sludge and groove awesomeness throughout this entire album, while forging a sound of their own. It leaves you with a recognisable sense of fatigue after the whooping you have just subsequently received.

Conan Interview 17/09/11

It was our honour to have gotten the chance to get Jon (gutiarist/ vocals) from Conan (Burning World/ Head Of Crom) to answer a few questions. 

After seeing them play at Royal Park Cellars with Wizard's Beard, Five Will Die, ZARK! and Sloth Hammer we were eager to find out more about the existence of the these 3 heavy gentleman.

These questions were fielded to Jon Davis via email on 17th September, 2011 and here is what he said:
