“Year6Disco beam in from another dimension to point out that just because things are in the shape they are, they don’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 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, it’s important to remember that they’re on your side, too.” Facebook | Instagram Subscribe to The Underground Stage Playlist […]
“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’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.

“Ess-Em trades in despicably clever songs that lie somewhere between musical theatre, a knees-up, and a punch in the minerals.

Keyboards squelch and boing and churn, the bass guitar saws into the side of your head like the shower scene in Scarface, and the whole pounding set is chock full of […]
“Grids & Dots have a tensile strength in their songs, like spider silk. You barely know it’s even there until you’re all tied up in it and the fangs are bearing down on you. The temptation for many artists is to just turn it up to eleven, but there’s real skill in being able to […]
“Vetty Vials’ superpower is making hard stuff look easy – this set is as hard as barbed wire, but it slips down like sugar off a spoon. It’s rare to watch a band that have everything just *down*, but by God it’s a pleasure to see.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter Subscribe to The Underground […]
“I’m trying really hard to avoid connecting Clay J Gladstone’s onstage stab vests to their sharp, finely honed sound, but it’s impossible. Sorry. Anyway, look – Clay J Gladstone are a Labrador-Doberman cross of a band, delighted with everything but poised to rip your neck open. If you’re built for it, this lot are near […]
