Behold! a Loci blog, an orientation if you will! We'll ease you in so as not to disturb you too greatly too soon... the really disturbingness-ery (TM) is yet to come!
Biography:
Loci wield music writhing with energy and intent. Aggressive
alternative rock offset by dreamy shoegazing; a sound that ambushes the
listener with both brute force and siren-like seduction. This is music
with edge, with dark intelligence and a sarcastic smile.
A “sense of menace”, BBC Wales suggest, is what sets Loci apart, and indeed a Loci performance is anything but predictable. Eighty shows of frenzied acrobatics, bruises, crushed instruments and applause. Unpredictable? Yes, but what you can expect is to leave with a grin!
A band true to the real ethos of indie and alternative, Loci’s self recorded and produced Filtered to Function EP is a visceral slice of their fierce, brutal and honest sound. “One of the rawest sounding bands to tear out of your stereos in a long while” UK Music Search.
Loci have received airplay from both mainstream and student radio, from BBC Bristol to Swansea’s the Wave dedicating a 15 minute segment solely to the band – as DJ Johnny B reinforced “This is music to care about!”

Loci, having recently supported both Killing for Company (ex-stereophonic's drummer Stuart Cable's new band) and Die So Fluid, are currently continuing the Perpetual Tour as well as preparing a spark-el-ey new release for early 2008.
