The first DiScover Sheffield of 2009 saw local adventure-poppers Urgent Talk - featured here - launch twin EPs & and && in some style, with their dynamic performance ensuring said discs were snapped up in none-too-shabby quantities afterwards. Nice T-shirts too.
Support act Brontide (Will from I Was A Cub Scout's new project, remember) also delivered on their promise to rock our socks off, despite said drummer looking close to death when he arrived and clutching a mug of honey and lemon for the remainder of the evening. Brutal.
All in all: a jolly good time. Up next? Wild Beasts in Sheffield on February 25th, and The Invisible in Manchester on March 10th. See you there?
