. Saturday, July 5th IMU presents RAMPANT LION DIGITAL EP RELEASE w/ OWL SKOWL, UGLY MEN & JOYCE ISLAND @ The Railway Club, 579 Dunsmuir . Show 10pm / $10 cover

RAMPANT LION possesses a growing catalogue of dynamic songs featuring 3-part harmonies, hummable melodies and garage grunge post punk riffs in a sound that's familiar yet current, aggressive yet melodic, fun yet serious. Their new EP "Mirror Distortion" was recorded in Seattle with Jack Endino (Nirvana, Soundgarden) and features the raw, dynamic energy of the band in its purest form. http://www.facebook.com/rampantlionband

OWL SKOWL - From fuzzed-out psychedelic '70s riffs to the heartwarming simplicity of the self-loathing '90s, Owl Skowl brings a diverse range of sonic pleasure to the table. Their chemistry is undeniably entertaining and their music carries through with a dreamy grunge punch. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Owl-Skowl/250068265118715

UGLY MEN - Dripping down from Vancouver's subterranean pipes, Ugly Men is a three piece band of friends from former projects (Econoline Crush, Incura, It's Criminal) that plays loud ass music. http://www.facebook.com/uglymenmusic

JOYCE ISLAND - Wowing audiences with her raw, emotionally charged vocals and charismatic live shows since 2007, Lisa Joyce has had the pleasure of singing with Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and headlining Vancouver's 2012 Fringe Festival. Her songs are reminiscent of old traditionals with a modern spin, channeling the classic instrumental energies of artists like Neil Young, Tom Petty and Fleetwood Mac with rich guitar tones and bluesy psychedelia. http://www.joyceisland.ca
