Minus: Icelandic Art-Noize in Your Town in '04
sean by Sean Adams January 3rd, 2004
Icelandic noize-monsters return...

You may have see the mighty Minus on tour in 2003 with Oceansize (including our Underworld Alldayer), Million Dead and Jarcrew. Or you might have caught them at the Kerrang weekend. Or you may be a fool and be into the likes of sickness-throttling stoner noize from Queens of the Stoneage thru scuzzy-punk apocolyptic rock from Icarus Line; but not checked them out. WAKE UP! The bad boys are coming back...

To celebrate the proper UK release of their 3rd album 'Halldor Laxness' (which also features Queen Adreena's Katie-Jane Garside) via Smekkleysa/Bad Taste SM (co-owned by all the former Sugar Cubes) on Feb 9th 2004, they come over to play a full UK tour, opening at our DiS Manchester night and ending at John Kennedy's X-Fm Xposure fifth birthday.
