\"\"<\/a>Riot Act’s latest gig features Cardiff’s Don\u2019t Tread On Spiders. <\/i>They are a trio with a love of lo-fidelity rock \u2018n roll….try throwing the terms ‘indie’, ‘post punk’, ‘arty’ and even ‘pop’ at them, it all sticks. Founded in the Summer of 2007 they’ve been working hard on home-made material such as the angular \u201cMy Week In Shinjuku\u201d and folksy \u201cTogether Again\u201d. Radio Wales DJ Adam Walton played the\u201cMy Week In Shinjuku\u201d demo only five days after it was uploaded on MySpace, and new demo ‘Get Up and Go’ has also just received some air play.<\/p>\n

Influences include a mixture of Velvet Underground, The Kills, White Stripes and David Bowie……all beaten and whisked by a piece of Beatles White Album vinyl.<\/p>\n

In previous incarnation ‘The Days<\/i>‘, DTOS<\/i> has appeared on the Twisted ByDesign\u2019s \u201cThis Town Ain\u2019t Big Enough For The 22 Of Us\u201d compilation, and were NME Number 1 Breaking Band in November 2006. They’ve also had a song used by BBC Wales for it\u2019s Arts Mundi programme, and have been invited to play in some uber-cool London venues, including the living room sized Betsy Trotwood and Libertine’s haunt Rythm Factory.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Tread On Spiders have a diligent ambition to become one of the scene’s top indie acts, and will continue to write and release more songs either independently or preferably with a record label over the coming year.’<\/p>\n

Support on the night comes from Lil Deaths and Black Chalk. Tickets are \u00a33 (plus booking fee) in advance from Diverse and \u00a35 on the night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
