2Mums @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Depriving us of most eye contact, 2Mums make sure youโ€™re focussed on two things – the lizard-brain reflex of watching a singer with no face, and the ferocity of the soundtrack. The only response is to give up on the brain altogether. Animal rules, animal response.” Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released […]

UTI @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“UTI pull no punches, respect no boundaries, and generally bust off the stage like a monkey from a box. Smooth though – like itโ€™s on rails. As loud as rolling thunder, coming in from the air like artillery.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released goodies from the very best new […]

I Hate People @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Itโ€™s a bit comforting, somehow, to realise that I Hate People do in fact hate many, many people. Most of whom, to be fair, are politicians or racists or both. For their sins, they receive a tongue-lashing in the chord of NOISE, and so do we all.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage […]

Shit Tinnies @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Shit Tinnies are as taut as a wire tonight and as pointy as a stick in your eye. Bitey rhythms and snappy little fangs of song chew into your ankles until you realise you can no longer walk straight. To be fair, that might be the booze. Doesnโ€™t matter, youโ€™re still on your arse.” Facebook […]

Year6Disco @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Year6Disco beam in from another dimension to point out that just because things are in the shape they are, they donโ€™t *have* to be that way. This set is bent out of any normal geometry and into forms that constantly surprise – yet at the same time delight.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground […]

Kids Of Skids @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Kids Of Skids are absolutely bloody furious, and this set is designed to do nothing but upset you. But – while they are right up in your face, a fearsome racket pounding and fracturing your eardrums, itโ€™s important to remember that theyโ€™re on your side, too.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist […]

Pictures With Yuki @ Frankie’s, 21st Feb

“Pictures With Yuki are mostly made entirely of wild and feral hooks that I think may have started off somewhere near jazz but have definitely now decided instead on a life of crime. They are also made of all the hair. A heady cocktail indeed.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty […]

Casual Fan @ The Chippo, 20th Feb

“Casual Fanโ€™s songs mostly start off gentle as anything, a breeze on the face. As they go on though, all the elements in the band develop like a photograph, details and story and texture all appearing like magic. Wonderful stuff.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist Thirty freshly-released goodies from […]

Ess-Em @ Moshpit, 20th Feb

“Ess-Em trades in despicably clever songs that lie somewhere between musical theatre, a knees-up, and a punch in the minerals. Sharp of eye, and sharper of wit, this is such giddy, densely-packed fun youโ€™re honestly just a bit relieved if you can keep up with most of the jokes. Grin, you bastards.” Facebook | Instagram
