GROWING is a drone-based band formed in Olympia, Washington, but currently residing in Brooklyn, New York. Consisting of the long-term pairing of Kevin Doria and Joe Denardo, as well as recent recruit Sadie Laska, Growing have become more refined and delicate of late - the rock has all but dissapeared leaving only the space. The momentum is built from glitches and jitters, gurgles and bright spots of sound, repeated and layered with warm, spacious and velvety capsules of sound. Their latest LP 'All The Way' is out now on Social Registry and follows some landmark works for the likes of Kranky, Troubleman Unlimited and Rock Action.

NISENNENMONDAI are one of our most favourite bands! Imagine an insane birthday party with Sun City Girls, Keiji Haino and Mika Miko all invited, things are gonna go volcanic, and that's where Nisennenmondai come in! Of all the noisy girl groups of Kansai, Tokyo, Nisennenmondai - translated as 'Year 2000 problem', a reference to the millenium bug - are the most intense and hypnotic. Himeno Sayaka (drums), Zaikawa Yuri (bass) and Takada Masako (guitar) met at the same after school music club at university in Tokyo and quickly jumped into band formation, combining pulsing, heathen rhythms and tranced-out, metallic guitar.

TEAM BRICK is a young man from Bristol who creates errie organic drones from accordion, throat singing, hand bells and percussive clangs sent through an FX pedal chain. The overall effect is a kind of Klezmeric noise soundscape. Numerous releases are available via Invada, Victory Garden and Deafcat Records.

MARNIE STERN can shred. She's a better guitar player than 99% of the people who have ever looked at a guitar. Marnie came out of nowhere, or the Upper East Side of Manhattan to be exact, influenced by Sleater-Kinney, Hella and Don Cab's finger-tapping prowess. Having practiced guitar for "at least" three hours each day for the last however many years, she's released two super records for Kill Rock Stars - 'In Advance of the Broken Arm' and more latterly 'This Is It'. Her songs are of the earth, birthed in an organic process and with a staggering number of layers of guitar, drums, synth and vocals.

TRASH KIT are a careering skip-rope no-wave trio from London, comprising two Rachels and a Ros. Mixing chaos and trippy melody in equal measure, Trash Kit are as jubliant as they are focussed. Vocals tangle with each other and highly expressive drum patterns, while guitar lines make for a serious adventure into the realms of party. So far they have a CD-R, which keeps selling out at shows, and will be working with UTR on a new record shortly.

TARTUFI is Brian Gorman and Lynne Angel of San Francisco. They are friends. They are brother and sister. They are musical husband and wife. They are tar and feather. They are thunder and lightning. They are Salt N Pepa (sans Spinderella). Part aggressive, experimental-noise rock, part delicate and lovely melody, their latest full-length 'Nests of Waves and Wires' is out now on Southern.
