SAS SLIT AND SAWDUST Halifax 7 bander 26 04 08

So to the headline act The Mispelt 2.0
This was a perfect headliner and the band were really functioning as a quality unit despite this being an embryonic outing. Quality bass lines were escorted with some superb melodic guitar work and a waterfall of rat a tat drum work. A talented trio and now with the supremely excellent frontlady this is one of the best bands so far this year that I have had the pleasure of viewing. Despite the emphasis on melody there is a superfluity of attitude here and each song is an individual pleasure. Tonight I was almost knocked of my feet by the metamorphical result of that classic ditty 'Drive It Like You Stole It ' wow! Also a song called 'Superhero ' stood out from an array of high class offerings and really did make my night.

Overall a positively excellent evening with again an overspill of talent on show at a free SAS gig. Many a statement is said by the underdog and duly ignored by the critical masses of the punk scene but on evidence like this one must ask how much longer can these bands be ignored.
