Angular Recording Company are a label based in New Cross, London and Leeds who have released records by the likes of Art Brut, Klaxons, The Long Blondes and These New Puritans.

OSCarr stands for Optimo Singles Club and related recordings. The OSCarr label was started by Optimo DJs Twitch and Wilkes as a means of highlighting and applauding the local talent they were most excited about.

Findo Gask

Gregory and Gerard have been in bands together since they met at St Andrew’s High School, Kirkcaldy, Fife. Gregory and Michael went to Fife Youth Orchestra together (all the band also have some classical training.) In 2005, an early incarnation of the band released a split seven inch with Errors, and invited Gavin Thomson (of local band Flying Matchstick Men) to produce it.

The band spent a year practicing in Gerard's bedroom above notorious local indie dive Nice n Sleazy's, but it wasn't until 2006 (when Flying Matchstick Men split up) that Gavin joined, adding a wealth of electronic equipment, and everything was turned on its head. The band took nine months out to write new material, the first fruits of which are the tracks available on the OSCarr/Angular release.

Looking forward to the CCA gig, hope it doesn't sell out before I can scrape the pennies together to buy a ticket.
