As intent as the music press is to affix labels, this band's music truly resists categorization. On the band's new Rx/Palm label debut, Another One Lost, this accomplished songwriting fivesome mine wholly uncharted terrain. The album's rock experimentalism will quite naturally elicit comparisons to The Talking Heads, The Pixies, Pink Floyd, and Sonic Youth. But the live drums somehow manage to evoke both John Bonham's thunder and Aphex Twin's drum machine. Elsewhere moody atmospherics will recall Amon Tobin, Kool Keith, and DJ shadow. While the groups sonic explorations bring to mind Steve Reich and Brian Eno. Their live shows are legendary and have helped the band develop a diverse fanbase, which is why established acts as disparate as Queens of the Stone Age, Amon Tobin, Live, The Dismemberment Plan, Ben Harper, Soul Coughing, Cursive and many others have all shared their stage with Lake Trout. A Gullifty's favorite. The Secret Machines - Secret Machines posses a breadth of vision in their songwriting which is profoundly rare. The music unfurls sprawling landscapes where splashes of organ and shards of reverbed guitars lead the listener down a trippy path. Yet if at first the Secret Machine¹s disposition is calm and reserved, it later expands, layer by layer, until their musical terrain becomes laden with colorful melodies, counter harmonies and coyly poignant lyrics. Recently signed to Sire Records, the NYC based Psychedelic trio has toured with Trail of Dead, toured internationally, amongst many notable accomplishments. First time at Gullifty's. - Saturday, December 6 No Refill Seventh Hour No Refill - In 2001 on Christmas Eve, No-Refill made their first public appearance at Gulliftys Night Club with Julian Fist.

Seventh Hour - Honest Original Unprecedented Rock. These are just a few adjectives to describe Seventh Hour's sound. This is hard rock at it's finest, incorporating catchy choruses, seamless harmonies, and flawless execution. Inspired by bands such as Finger 11, Fuel, Pink Floyd, Rush and Led Zeppelin, these 4 musicians mix it all together for one superior sound. Sara B. Tim Savage Friday, December 12 Mary Prankster Mercury Naked Stranger Mary Prankster - The controversial Baltimore/Annapolis area Cow-Punk songstress has recently relocated to the Big Apple.

The Milwaukees - Lollipop - "One of the last and finest practitioners of good ol’ emotional post-punk, The Milwaukees never disappoint. This is a Stickup is perhaps the band’s best, pouring every ounce of strength into (old) Elliott-like anthems that recall the best of Joshua as well. Thick yet well-thought out riffs, courtesy of producer John Agnello, delivering most of the punches here. But guitarist/vocalist Dylan stands out as the tower in this fortress with simply gut-wrenching howls. This is how punk can be emotional, not Dashboard Confessional." From New Jersey, 1st time at Gullifty's. Friday, December 19 Darcie Miner Band Red Room Darcie Miner Band - Influential Philadelphia station WXPN named Darcie one of its Artists to Watch in 2003.

Saturday, December 20 Hexbelt Hexbelt - Hexbelt has the ability to cut across political, social, and economic boundaries to reach the masses. A peer in a crowd at a Hexbelt show would reveal a cross section of society, with baby boomers, neo-hippies, punks, blue collars, yuppies and the like; all jamming together as one. Hexbelt truly is a unique band in an age of increasingly generic modern music. - - Friday, December 26 C Minus Society Axum C Minus Society - ex-Creamsicle, Dingleberry Shortcake, Novelty.
