Will this be a fair fight? Two musical heavyweights go head to head in a sound-clash at The Hyde Park Book Club, Leeds. In one corner, the immense Shoun Shoun, the Bristol Butchers. And in the other, Paul Morricone with band trading blows for the baying audience.
Paul Morricone
A widescreen filmic sound with a singular singing style and baritone voice
The new record Go Sanction Yourself takes on a bolder wonky dance feel, doubling up beats with a super-tight live rhythm section of Ant and Mitch, yet still luscious and expansive in its ambitions.
“If there’d ever been a dream collaboration between Scott Walker and Massive Attack this is what it might have sounded like…so dense and ambitious: a huge widescreen soundscape where the harmonic surprises never stop coming”

Shoun Shoun ('shoon-shoon')
From Berlin / Bristol based unflinching, atmospheric noise pop and art psych rock with the urban ennui of Nico and the noise of Sonic Youth.
Shoun Shoun's sound is hard to categorise, moving between art rock and soporific dream pop, playful psychedelia and carnal post punk, embracing the duality of darkness and bliss, melody and noise.
"unpredictably surreal"
"Organic and dangerous art-rock"
"Rather than just rely on raw power they have moulded their sound into something stylish and intelligent and I could easily see them playing a set at the Tate Modern or MOMA."
Their music got aired on Radio 6 and by 40+ radio stations across the globe – from Canada to Belgium.
