Balderdash are a trio from Brussels. <br><br> Their sound is based on a tight, adventurous rhythm section and a penetrating guitar sound. The vocals refer to the sonority of the eighties. The experiment is served with a greasy rock'n'roll sauce. <br><br> Main influences: the experiment of The Ex, the rhythm of The Jesus Lizard, the irony of Rapeman, the chilly sound of Tool and Shellac and the foolishness of Killdozer and Jandek. <br><br>

Début 2011, le groupe sort son second album « An hour with... ».
Une véritable petite bombe musicale aux sonorités puissantes et efficaces, agrémentées de mélodies on ne peut plus accrocheuses. Leur implacable section rythmique secondée de guitares tour à tour corrosives ou légères soutiennent et portent une voix envoûtante et percutante qui se balade entre douceur et rage.
Un an après, le bilan est lourd : 2 singles (Better days et The Fool) ont tournés sur de nombreuses radios (Pure FM, Twizz, Classic 21, Sud radio,…), plus de 30 shows à travers le pays (Francofolies, Fiesta Du Rock, VK, 24h de LLN, Belvédère de Namur, Père Noël est un Rockeur…), de très bons papiers dans la presse spécialisée, des interviews Radio et TV (Pure FM, Arte, La Une,…), une semaine en acoustique dans làŸémission 50° Nord (RTBF/ARTE), la composition du générique de làŸémission « CàŸest du Belge », la première place du Décompte PureFM pendant 10 semaines cet été, … !!
Un nouveau single verra le jour avant le printemps 2012 et VEGAS confirmera également sur scène dès le début dàŸannée.

OXES (USA/AFRICANTAPE)
There was a time that rock and roll was easy. But now it's clean and heavy.
The age of Extended Dance mixes. 12"s pressed at 45rpm. Madon- na songs that last 9 minutes instead of 3. musical movements counted in months instead of years. This is Oxes on Africantape. A series of 12" records with new songs, new remix versions from artists like Cex, Jason Urick, MRC Riddims (of Dalek), and many more to come.
Oxes started in Baltimore, Maryland on August 16th, 1998. This is Madonna's birthday. Performance, Songs, Variety, Jokes. This has been their motto. They have made people rockout/laugh with their mugicianship. They helped Dan Deacon to move to Baltimore. One of them moved to a small town in Italy. One started recording bands such as Lower Dens and Wye Oak. One of them took his virtuous guitar stylings and started the Microkingdom. The one that moved to that small town later moved to Berlin because they still have good health insurance there but it enabled him to host Karaoke with Pantyload, DJ 45rpm singles at 33rpm, and make videos. Now when this group of friends get together, a massive vortex of tweets and status updates are sprinkled with homemade tagliatelle, vibrating neon psychedelic upside-down crooked triangles, and 3D glasses. This produces the magic that you will hear on vinyl. We invite you to share the joy with us, and not forget to experience their live set, which someone said once was sorta original.
