The Tints @ Oxford Art Factory, 13th Mar

Naughty Boys – Pissed On

There are few sounds more furious than Naughty Boys going off on one – although on this latest track, that’s under-cooking it.

Bruise Pristine @ The Lansdowne, 8th Mar

“Bruise Pristine mean it more than you do. When other, wimpier, bands might think they’ve done enough to get their message across, Bruise Pristine are just getting warmed up. Think you’ve got enough distortion and squall and protest and anger? You’re Bob Dylan *before* he went electric compared to this lot. For Bruise Pristine, going […]
