Summer 2008. A journey across Europe. Running away from the last adventure and on to the next. Whatever happens, happens – throw on a jacket, thumb through the passport and go. Going and letting go, with no masterplan. Disillusioned, pissed off and nothing except our own hope – the Myspace generation. Friends connected through wires but still holding out to meet. Our chances, the ones no-one had before, we take with both hands, building new families because the ones we have are broken. Our connections instant, more precious than the ones we’re tied to by blood. More valid. Through our bedrooms sacred, secretive, quiet, the only words we speak are the ones we mean. Be sure we are rising. Though we will never change.
Fifteen posters of thirteen boys, these rare moments.
The super cool and hard to find t-shirts from londen based band ULTERIOR! Every t-shirt comes with a 5 track EP + their latest videos for “15″ and “Weapons” + 4 remixes by Zlaya, Diamonds, Ade Fenton and A.R.E. Weapons.
ULTERIOR have been extremely busy over the past 12 months, fresh from their European tour supporting The Sisters Of Mercy, the band have been recording their new single ‘Sister Speed / Aporia’, a 10“ double A/digital release out on DiscError Records in July. The London 4 piece are Honey (Vocals), Simmons (Guitars), Mickey (Bass) and MCG (Synths and Machines). They have outgrown every scene/fad tag they have been associated with over the past 2 years, fast becoming an exciting rock ‘n’ roll band with the staying power to establish themselves as one of the best new acts coming out of the UK.
In the last year, ULTERIOR have shared stages with the likes of (the aforementioned) The Sisters Of Mercy and A.R.E. Weapons, The Horrors, These New Puritans, Black Strobe and Sonic Boom of the legendary Spacemen 3. The band have also grown a large European fanbase, (playing riotous shows across Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, Poland and Scandanavia), to add to their already burgeoning UK support from amazing shows at The Astoria, Koko and Scala.
Too heavy for chi-chi electro clubs, too intense for lolloping indie hipsters, too much pouting rock ‘n’ roll and good looks for the noise geeks to stomach – ULTERIOR are quickly carving out their own cut of the UK music scene. The band describe themselves simply as “electronic rock and roll”, with many references such as Big Black, Sisters of Mercy, Manic Street Preachers and Suicide.
The band have also gained a certain rep among celebs in the know; Kate Moss, Bobby Gillespie, Douglas Hart (Jesus and The Mary Chain), Jade Jagger and Peaches Geldof have all been spotted at their London shows.
Together with uMag from Hamburg we went to Melt! Festival 2010 and asked some of our favourite bands to customize our tote bags.
