this is the greeting to Barbelith i always write so it doesn't look like i am merely cut+pasting in (admittedly self-penned) spam. HEWWO.

HATERZ CLOSE YR EYES:
BREAKING NEWS FROM ICFTHS!

it's official. after the most successful year in their history, It Came from the Sea are sad to the core to announce their immanent departure from The Sussex Arts Club (note: hilarious as it wd be, this is not some *wacky* April Fools gag – but REAL LIFE – which is long-term slapstick without the comfort of a laugh track.)

fact is, the war of attrition we've been fighting with the venue's frankly terminatorish limiter has taken its toll and we're sick to def of spending 40-minute stretches staring into its evil LEDs. as such, THIS SATURDAY is yr last chance to make like three types of chocolate
cake under the half-completed fibre-optic constellation spattered across the dome. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

IT CAME FROM THE SEA
LAST STAND AT SSX ARTS

mourners and well-wishers should congregate for one last shared spasm – sweet sorrow in the FACE OF DEATH – where they will BURIED ALIVE under a barrage of heavenly megamixing. we will accept floral tributes.

we'll be announcing a new phizzase in the ICFTHS mizzasterplan next month – for now, know that we've already confirmed a temporary home where we'll take you back to summer school – before a hyperbolic hot-like-phoenix-flavour re-re-launch at a bigger, more central venue in october.
