STOMPING GROUND PRESENTS SPELLBOUND ALBUM LAUNCH PARTY FEATURING SPELLBOUND + THE THINGS + MONGOHORN @ VOODOO LOUNGE DUBLIN SAT FEB 24TH TICKETS: 12EURO DOORS: 8.30pm Spellbound was formed in 1986. Unlike other Irish bands of their time, Spellbound decided to head directly to mainland Europe, where their 1988 debut album ‘Mystical Madness’ (amazingly, that album was never released in their home country). The boys blazed a brief trail across Europe before, it seemed, vanishing. Tentative moves toward a re-union were made in 2003 when guitarist friend Doyley contacted the boys to inform them that copies of ‘Mystical Madness’ appeared to be changing hands on the internet for astronomical sums Their most recent album, ‘A Fistful of Spells’ is the result of ever-increasing calls from fans for that long-awaited follow-up to ‘Mystical Madness’. The 2006 Spellbound line-up, while remaining true to the style and spirit of the original, brings the band bang-up-to-date with a new batch of original songs, alongside some (previously unrecorded) versions of old-school classics. http://www.myspace.com/spellboundmusic The Things are five social misfits raised in the gritty streets of Dublin.
