July 29th, 2008 at 11:31 amMono would be good, they are killer live!
July 29th, 2008 at 4:30 pmSunn O))) Boris, Weedeater/Bongzilla, & if you pay them enough money to reform Les Rallizes Denudes (best band ever imo)
July 29th, 2008 at 5:32 pmhttp://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Les+Rallizes+Denudes+&search_type=
Silver Mount Zion, Venetian Snares, Birchville Cat Motel, Melvins, Lightning Bolt, Jackie O Motherfucker, Black Dice, Colleen. Any of these would make Supersonic reach new levels of brilliance imo, though it would still be damn hard to top ‘08.
July 30th, 2008 at 2:53 amsupersilent or spunk (norwegian ladies) please, they are unpredictable/exciting improvisers.
July 31st, 2008 at 11:10 amSupersilent definitely or Deathprod solo, Orthodox again but much later on the bill, Wolves in the Throne Room, Torche, Cave, HEALTH, Circle, Deerhoof, Burning Star Core and if you could get Can to reform and play Future Days that would be lovely.
July 31st, 2008 at 10:40 pmI’m pretty new to the genres generally featured at Supersonic, but I do totally love A Silver Mt Zion. They have become one of my alltime fave bands after a friend introduced me to them.
Also love live drum and bass.
August 1st, 2008 at 10:40 amI also vote for A Silver Mount Zion or could we have Stereolab please - pretty please. Colleen also gets my vote
would like to see berg sans nipple again. Shellac, Sonic Youth (we could all club together for the fee), Terry Riley and John Cale playing Church of Anthrax - sorry went a bit Don’t Look Back there, Steve Reich, Bonnie Prince Billy, The Breeders, Feu Therese, The Evens (Ian MacKaye and Amy someone).
if you want pets playing instruments victor is really good on the guitar - maybe the girls would like to form a rock band with him and two or three small squirrels
August 1st, 2008 at 6:19 pmThe cat kicks the dog’s arse in the theremin stakes, I’m afraid, but then cats always will beat dogs.
I hate to make suggestions for Supersonic as the joy for me is seeing stuff I’d never heard of, or even conceived as possible, before but when I saw this madness it did make me think of you:
http://www.pinktentacle.com/2008/07/circuit-bent-pikachu-instruments/
If not the Pikachus then maybe some more circuit bending people to join Brian and co?
Not sure if they’re a Supersonic band (not sure what a Supersonic band is, to be honest) but I’m quite taken with Whipping Cats at the moment.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_PpC0WOp00
Pete out.
August 1st, 2008 at 11:59 pmShellac, Machinefabriek, Xela, Hood, Tarentel, Growing, Gareth Hardwick, Zettasaur, Black Dice. That lot would make me very happy.
August 2nd, 2008 at 1:28 amI think Ulver would be awesome as would Aidan Baker/Nadja or something Justin Broadrick related like Jesu or Final. Anything Neurosis or Melvins sounding will do the trick. Transitional should come back again and Kling Klang, PCM and Scotch Egg. What about Zeni Geva seeing as they couldn’t play last year and some of the Deawood recordings bands?
August 2nd, 2008 at 6:39 pmCORRUPTED
August 3rd, 2008 at 8:00 pmHow about that ace new band the Solway Fifth boys are in? They’re so good they don’t even have a name yet! They’re about to come back and remove folks faces. This is not a plug. Oh no.
August 4th, 2008 at 1:46 pm[...] Suggestions for Supersonic Festival 09 Yours are requested. Also, videos of a small dog and a cat playing theramins/thermamii/whatever. [...]
August 4th, 2008 at 6:55 pmSeems greedy to even make suggestions after it was so good this year. But hell! you did ask, Circle & Nadja are great shouts (never managed to get to see either). Then maybe Keith Kenniff in his “Goldmund” guise, I could just go some stark, emotional piano and then back to some howling power chords!
Seriously though, one of the great delights of Supersonic is turning up to see an act you don’t know and getting blown away (then nipping back to the Merch hall and blowing more money!). Actually how fantastic the merch area was, should be mentioned as well - I better start saving now if it’s going to be that great again next year!
Did wonder if there was any chance of building on the DIY thing and trying to find some room for a micro brewer to sell their stuff (Don’t know if that’s possible with the Custard Factories Bars though? or maybe if that just proves I’m now an old F**t! yeah it’s probably the later aint it?).
August 4th, 2008 at 8:14 pmJust thought of some more - Wraiths, Gnaw Their Tongues, Burial Hex, Moss, Sleep Research Facility, Pita
August 4th, 2008 at 11:19 pm…..TenhornedBeast, Marzuraan……..
August 4th, 2008 at 11:20 pmMaybe - with a year to organise it - the petting zoo could be achieved.
Also a charity for pygmy goats.
August 5th, 2008 at 7:10 amThe Twilight Sad (loud scottish shoegazer) and A Forest Of Stars (black metal victoriana). I agree with #16 Jums on the evil ambience suggestions ie Burial Hex, Wraiths, etc. How about some dubstep like Burial, Jazzsteppa, DJ Distance, Innasekt, etc or more live drum n’ bass like poster #7 catnip suggested. I would reccomend DJ Scamp for the job. Albino Ghost Monkey (this weird and wonderful american video game musician) would make an excellent Supersonicesque act. I would say Crystal Castles too but i’m afraid that they wouldn’t go down very well due to their ‘nefarious’ practices. / But all these suggestions aside… If you could get The Knife and/or Current 93 to perform here I would actually sell my soul to Capsule.
August 5th, 2008 at 11:37 amOooo suggestions, suggestions, probably shouldnt but will anyway, British Murder Boys live - birminghams finest purveyors of industrial strength techno for Friday night.
August 5th, 2008 at 12:10 pmBoredoms, Boredoms, Boredoms Boredoms, Boredoms!!!!!!!!!
Mammatus are kinda wrong but very right at the same time and would fit in fine methinks
Bohren und der club of gore would be a perfect way to mend broken ears on a sunday evening. Mike Pattons fantomas, Right I’ll stop now before I get carried away…. oh and I’ll put in any spare cash ive got to go towards a sonic youth show…(sara) and then theres Liars would be good…erm sorry,
Whatever it’ll be my favourite weekend of the year whoever you book. Thanks Girls…!
Boredoms - Yes!!!!
August 6th, 2008 at 1:06 pmjazzfinger current 93 michael cashmore nurse with wound six organs of admittance comets on fire throbbing gristle any of them would be amazing
August 6th, 2008 at 1:26 pmMy mate Phil wants to know if you can book the cat playing the theremin. He says he would pay good money to see that.
My guess is that the cat would be cheaper to book than the dog, as the dog seems to need a human accompanier, whereas “king cat” can play solo!
August 6th, 2008 at 3:42 pmAny of these would be amazing:
August 7th, 2008 at 12:53 amThrobbing Gristle, Black Dice, Skullflower (or any Matthew Bower!), Agaskodo Teliverek, PRE, Chops, Grouper , Chris Corsano, Mindflayer, NAPALM DEATH!!!!
Oh, and Ikue Mori too!
August 7th, 2008 at 12:54 amI hate to make suggestions, that kinda takes the fun out of the “wait and see” game. That and the fact you’ve always done superbly well without my assistance.. hahaha…. Firstly, I am in full agreement with a number of the commentators above that you need to book the cat playing the theramin, I’d pay to see that. Cats rule…. If you could get Old Man Gloom across I’d be a very happy bunny, in fact a very, very happy bunny. Or maybe Battle of Mice, or a bit of country doom with Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots… Whomever is on I shall look forward to it whatever….
August 7th, 2008 at 10:44 amOoh, give Acid Mothers Temple the Space2 warehouse (or any big space really) for a few hours and tell them to bring their friends. Maybe an all nighter - 2-6am or something?
August 7th, 2008 at 7:27 pmWould like to see Sion Orgon live
August 11th, 2008 at 9:14 pmor we could have a whip round and get the knife??
aluk todolo - corrupted - earthless - circle - bardo pond - comets on fire - zombi (again) - seefeel (back together already) - darsombra-maserati-the entire roster of psf records
that’ll do!
August 12th, 2008 at 7:49 pmZombi would be awesome if they are still together? Nurse with Wound, Faust……
August 13th, 2008 at 5:34 pmHans Joachim Irmler`s Faust ,Bolt Thrower ( Karl Willetts played a blinder with P.C.M. this year ),.Throbbing Gristle and a performance from Amon Duul 2 would be wonderful. Just a thought, if you could get Dave Stewart to reform Egg for Supersonic I could die a happy man . Thanks again for this year .
August 14th, 2008 at 11:03 amMassive +1 for Acid Mothers Temple. Seen them thrice over recent months - best live band in the world!
August 14th, 2008 at 8:50 pmSilver Mount Zion, Mono, Low, Venetian Snares, Sennen, Mahogany, Stereolab, Nurse with Wound, Lightning Bolt, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, please get back together guys, we need you more than ever!

August 15th, 2008 at 6:17 pmThrobbing Gristle, Wire, Flipper, Negative Approach, Can, Mission of Burma
August 18th, 2008 at 8:57 pmdeaf centre, nadja, circle, capricorns, current 93, tunng, electric wizard, grails, melvins, james blackshaw, black moth super rainbow, religious knives, zombi and always - alexander tucker
August 19th, 2008 at 8:39 amjust thought that these guys may shake things up a bit. everyone loves a heavy metal cover band
I give you Tragedy - a heavy metal Bee Gees tribute band
http://www.letsmaketragedyhappen.com/
ohhhhh the Knife - yes please - pretty please with sugar and cherries on top
August 19th, 2008 at 2:39 pmooo yes, how could I forget The Knife, currently in my top 10 and special to me because I discovered them all by myself after hearing Karin’s amazing voice on the Royksopp’s What Else Is There
August 23rd, 2008 at 9:18 amOptrum, Shellac, Wolfgang Voight, Jim White, Hair Police and I can vouch for The Knife being amazing live. Oh and if we’re going down the line of kidnapping peoples relatives and holding them at gun-point until they reform and agree to play then Big Black would be nice. As ever though I have all faith in the Capsule girls so do whatever you want!!
August 25th, 2008 at 8:28 pmgotta second The Knife and Wolfgang Voight, would be good to see some more electronic stuff to balance out the metal
. also how about stereolab or better still a stereolab vs broadcast vs ghost box hauntology face off, spooky.. and i wouldn’t mind seeing panda bear, animal collective, panasonic or Matthew dear either..
August 27th, 2008 at 3:41 pmIn no particular order: Gang Gang Dance, Boredoms, OOIOO, Animal Collective, Health, Marnie Stern, Ariel Pink, Barr, Atlas Sound, Dan Deacon, Kim Hiorthøy, Konono Nr. 1, Magik Markers, Mika Miko, The Ohsees, Shoplifting, Tall Firs, Sonic Youth. I’m sure whoever you book it’s going to be goodtimes anyway. Here’s to 2009.

September 23rd, 2008 at 1:41 amHi. I’d like to see some metal that wasn’t droney/doomy so how about A Forest of Stars (UK Victorian-themed black metal) and Fen (heavy post-rocky BM) or if you can bring someone over then Wolves in the Throne Room (US) or Darkspace (Switzerland). All atmospheric and heavy and wonderful.
September 25th, 2008 at 6:12 pmWes’s suggestions are nearly all spot on, Sightings and Shit & Shine especially.

October 11th, 2008 at 1:14 amBook Iridescent (the band) to play at the 2009 Supersonic Festival .
October 11th, 2008 at 11:53 amCheers , A.
I’ll add a vote for Ikscheltaschel (http://www.myspace.com/Ikscheltaschel) Danish rap miesters where one member is a 12ft dragon. They don’t rap in Danish, but some sort of made-up language - fantastic.
October 11th, 2008 at 12:20 pmFleshpress, Yob….
October 18th, 2008 at 3:43 pmAfter seeing both David Scott Stone (sometime Melvins cohort) and Lucky Dragons play some of the most bewitching, captivating performances i’ve seen in a while this weekend, definitely book them! Another shout for Foot Village too!

November 3rd, 2008 at 8:39 pmMonster Killed By Laser from Leeds would be the icing on the dogs cock!! they rule the world!
December 12th, 2008 at 8:29 pmYes i agree Monster Killed By Laser are ripping up the scene at the moment with their subtle brand of King Crimson esque prog genius and would be an absolute worthy addition!! Check em out on th’ myspace shennanigans!!
December 12th, 2008 at 8:33 pmI’d like to second Stereolab plus also Antique Seeking Nuns, G.L.O.W. and Circulus, to name but a few.

December 22nd, 2008 at 4:08 pm*cough* *cough* mazagene http://www.last.fm/music/mazagene *cough* *cough*
shameless plugging aside, id say the sleep sessions, massonna, fuck buttons, nihilist spasm band and perhaps you could force godspeed you! black emperor and yellow swans to reform? at gun point? if its not to much effort that is
December 23rd, 2008 at 9:38 pmSecret Chiefs 3, Gnaw, Kraftwerk
December 27th, 2008 at 11:23 pmWould it be possible to have Litmus and Black Angels added to the list please? Also finishing on a proper Hell-Yeah turn like Boulder or Scissorfight would be great - go out with a bang not a whimper. Lastly, have you considered having a compere for 2009? Frank Sidebottom would be the obvious choice but some celebrity nutjob like Julian Cope would also be good. Worth a thought?
December 30th, 2008 at 8:24 pmShameless self promotion…Citalopram. Would seriously love to play this festival…
Aside from that Masonna, Sunn O))), Grunt, Wolf Eyes, Boredoms (as if…), Boris, Esoteric, Peste Noire, Lifelover, Shining. Any of those if at all possible.
December 31st, 2008 at 12:59 amkay dot please, okthxbye
January 1st, 2009 at 10:48 pmFrank Sidebottom as compere = best idea in this thread.
January 4th, 2009 at 8:10 pmSleepytime Gorilla Museum of course…
January 5th, 2009 at 2:09 pmBoredoms, Om, Jack Rose, Circle, Nadja, Boris, Growing, Chrome Hoof, Mike Patton. Please.

January 6th, 2009 at 9:16 pmWeedeater would be awesome. What about John Zorn doing something or another?
January 8th, 2009 at 9:42 pmAnything with Mike Patton.
January 10th, 2009 at 5:20 pmYou have got go for Sunn O))) again, they were fucking amazing in 2007, also OM, cos my mate Gav hasn’t stopped raving about them since he saw them there……All nighter ? NO! how would folk get up for breakfast in the morning ? Faust, oh yes !, Acid Mothers Temple for sure, best live band I’ve seen in a long time……Knod from manchester, they are also amazing live….I will be back with more suggestions when I’m awake !
January 10th, 2009 at 6:58 pm‘owzabout The Books?
Also Califone, Om, Murcof, Alexander Tucker (again).
January 12th, 2009 at 6:23 pmHello, i’m afraid i’ve come to post somer more suggestions (as well as second a few ideas mentioned here)
A Forest Of Stars (like a black metal Miasma & TCOHH)
January 13th, 2009 at 12:39 pmAdultnapper (brilliant techno DJ behind Audiomatique 2.0)
Antony & The Johnsons (releases a new album this album)
Blue Sabbath Black Cheer (seriously evil noise)
Burial Hex (barbaric esoteric heathen noise/dark ambient)
Crystal Castles (too controversial? lovely noise to dance to)
Current 93 (this would be a dream come true)
Cut Copy (melodic and lovely indie dance malarkey)
Free Kitten (freaky feminist rock)
Future Of The Left (bizarre rock from the ex-Mclusky guys)
Gang Gang Dance (somebody mentioned them and I second their request)
Gnaw Their Tongues (straddling the lines between noise, ambient and BM)
Headhunter (proper ‘bo dubstep)
Health (if you drums you’ll like health)
Kiss The Anus Of A Black Cat (epic heathen folkiness)
The Knife (best electronic band ever)
Kylie Minoise (ultra harsh and shortlived blasts of noise)
Metronomy (too indie perhaps?)
New Risen Throne (released one of the best dark ambient albums ever back in 07)
The Presets (anybody heard that Apocalypso record they released in 08?)
Sachiko (ritualistic and very Japanese ambient)
Vestigial Limb (tape raping harsh noise)
DISCHARGE - stoke finest
January 13th, 2009 at 1:36 pmyou have got to book THE BLACK ANGELS from Texas, great band for a prime slot on Saturday night…..My mate Gav’ is still going on about OM !!!!!!!
January 15th, 2009 at 7:36 pmAnd some more why not?! [/zoidberg]
Deerhoof (mad but oh so pretty music with childish vocals)
January 16th, 2009 at 12:58 pmRobert Babicz (swirly techno/house DJ from cologne [I think])
Mouth (derby based stoner/grind duo)
Vex’d (atmospheric anthemic dubstep)
earth
January 16th, 2009 at 2:17 pmomar rodriguez
silver mt. zion
jarvis cocker
Faust would be awesome to headline a night, as would a return visit from Harvey Milk!
Also Liars, Ectogram, Tinariwen, Lightning Bolt, Boris, Gang Gang dance, Mum, Gallops, Why? would all be super…
Ikscheltaschel sound beautiful (earlier post), they must be worth a slot?!
January 18th, 2009 at 2:47 pmThe Lancashire Hotpots
January 18th, 2009 at 8:02 pmCircle, Harvey Milk, Extra Life, Combat Astronomy, Helms Alee, Ascend, Virus, Irezumi!
January 24th, 2009 at 11:20 amPleeeease!
See all the friends links on myspace for inpiration and good music.
Repetative Strain Disorder!
January 27th, 2009 at 1:50 amErmm…MELT BANANA!!! Suprised no one has suggested them yet, but yeah Sunn 0))), Om, Wolves in the throne room (just get the entire sounthern lord roster in for a shin dig!) some good breakcore madness and FAUST.
January 30th, 2009 at 12:52 pmJohn wiese!!!! The usual Southern Lord contingent…..Should the first acts be annaounced soon. It was around this time last year we got the headline acts announced?
February 12th, 2009 at 4:49 amLightning bolt
February 13th, 2009 at 8:59 amMatt Elliott, Third Eye Foundation, The Black Heart Procession, The Fall, Ergo Phizmiz, Meadow House, Simon Munnery (comedian/wise-guy), Snowden, Liars, Renaldo and the loaf, AFX, Uncle Owen Aunt Beru!, Supersilent, Mike Patton!, FENNESZ, ….that;ll do!
PLEASE!
February 18th, 2009 at 1:26 amYOB, Melt Banana, Circle, Helms Alee, Esoteric, Pilgrim Fathers, Nadja/Aidan Baker, Clouds
February 20th, 2009 at 10:50 amGotta agree with getting Monster Killed By Lazer - superb band. Also, That Fucking Tank, who are also from Leeds, slay too.
Finally, try for the Jesus Lizard. Please. Try.
February 22nd, 2009 at 1:02 amMindflayer and Black Pus
John Zorn
Hijokaidan. If the Incapacitants can make the bill even better. If not… well, how about Sponge (the Hiroshiges with Merzbow and Masonna)? Speaking of which, Space Machine and Christine 23 Onna.
Otomo Yoshihide (solo, New Jazz groups, Date Course Pentagon Royal Garden if they haven’t broken up).
As for the home front, how about Paul Catten? Let’s see the Sontaran Experiment on the bill.
February 23rd, 2009 at 12:54 pmReally don’t want Sunn O))) or O’Malley again, bored of him now, every year he seems to appear. How about something a little different like Supersilent? Their Jazz/Noise would be spectacular, and they virtually never play in the UK. What Supersonic needs is a big name like Nurse With Wound or Current 93, someone who really hasn’t done Birmingham before or doesn’t play in the UK very often.
March 2nd, 2009 at 3:44 pmKlangmutationen, Caspar Brotzmann
March 2nd, 2009 at 10:07 pmmasada,moss,boris,acid mothers temple,the original silence,Otomo Yoshihide,bongzilla,wolf eyes,gnaw their tongues
March 3rd, 2009 at 4:15 pmOh No/Dr. No, Kong+Jesus Lizard worship/Jesus Lizard, Donovan, Windy and Carl, Emeralds, Daniel Menche, Mission of Burma, Giddy Motors/Poino, Miracle Condition/US Maple actually performing etc. None of this because I can’t afford to come.
Note; you run a fairly priced and awesome festival.
March 3rd, 2009 at 11:08 pmWould love to see the secret chiefs 3 and Black cobra.
March 4th, 2009 at 11:21 amCorrupted, Boredoms, Prurient, Zeni Geva, Torche, Sex Vid, Mind Eraser, Tribes of Neurot. There’s more but I’m completly forgetting.
March 4th, 2009 at 12:44 pmSavage Republic, Saint Vitus, Keiji Haino solo or with any of his projects, The Necks, The Dead C, Jandek, Ornette Coleman, Kasai All-Stars, Stereolab, ¡¡¡Sightings!!!, Oxbow, Pere Ubu, Broadcast, Melvins, Mark Stewart & the Maffia, Volcano the Bear, Excepter, Magazine, Brainbombs, Model 500, Death Sentence: PANDA!, Sleep, Comets On Fire, Wire, Otomo Yoshihide, Mouse On Mars, Univers Zêro…
March 5th, 2009 at 6:27 pmSeeing as they seem to be quietly winding up to doing something, how about High Rise. Please.
Failing that, absolutely anything involving Asahito Nanjo or Munehiro Narita - even a cookery class, I don’t care, just so long as they’re there.
March 7th, 2009 at 9:17 amsvarte greiner, andrew liles, ignatz, gauze, everything paal nilssen love is involved with, humcrush, the ex, cauldron black ram (australian pirate death/black metal), portal ( amazing inovative death/black from australia), nuit noire, shit and shine, hospitals, dan melchior, pink reason, fabulous diamonds, utarm (black/noise from norway),giuseppe ielasi, the field, gui boratto, pan sonic. i agree with a lot of the other suggestions especialy saint vitus, savage republic and supersilent.
March 7th, 2009 at 9:33 amMotion Theory, a new prog rock/metal band from Durham - have been called “cutting edge progmetallism”.
March 7th, 2009 at 12:09 pmA silver mt zion would be such a vital band to play this year after all theyve done for the survival of the post rock genre and obviously being the closest band to godspeed you black emperor at the moment. I few other bands to note would be Nadja, Mono, Sunn and of course Boris
March 9th, 2009 at 5:43 pmOh yeah, how could I forget: Gate - there’s rumours of European shows, so why not? Or The Dead C.
March 10th, 2009 at 4:30 pmJesu, Secret Chiefs 3, The Young Gods, Merzbow, Jesu, Grey Machine, Nadja, anything from Profound Lore or Crucial Blast would work a treat. Would love to see Squarepusher as well - would be an excellent headliner.

Yes I agree with everyone suggesting Silver Mt. Zion! Supersonic does need a big name. These Arms Are Snakes? Regulars to Brum I know but amazing every time. Electronic noise- Squarepusher would be fantastic. Chris Clark to compliment Ventian Snares? Also Russian Circles seem to have evolved into one of the best bands I have seen for a few years.
March 13th, 2009 at 2:35 pmTrap Them or Converge would be incredible on the heaviest side, Pink Mountaintops would be great from a folkier perspective. Electric Wizard? Pissed Jeans? Deerhoof?
March 14th, 2009 at 12:51 pmNackt Insecten, Messiah Complex
March 16th, 2009 at 10:53 pmgallhammer (jpn) (an awesome blackend crust band) if only to see vivain slaughters dead eyed stare

March 18th, 2009 at 1:13 pmCan’t believe I’m finally going to see Corrupted, thanks whoever sorted that out. One other suggestion, the food last year was pretty dire are far too pricey. Being in the same place for two, maybe three days, it’d be nice if some of the food was abit healthier.
Also, REPULSION!

April 12th, 2009 at 7:37 pmI would like Daniel O’Sullivan to appear at Supersonic in some form again.
Mothlite would be the most desirable!
I think that The Locust would be a rather good addition also.
Oh, and Nadja!
