The Underground Stage
“Together Pangea tear the face off the place tonight. They might be in from LA, but they’re welcomed like old friends here. Jagged, hilarious, mayhem-fuelled and just BUCKETS full of tune. GodDAMN.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157667550854498″]
“Fritz are in from Newcastle and have brought all the charm in the world with them. They claim that they’re going to go shoegaze at some point but it really doesn’t, it’s like they’re allergic to producing anything except super-catchy, galatically adorable Allo Darlin-ish slices of lovely. Bags and bags and bags of promise-of-even-more-awesome-to-come, and […]
“Particles are just one of those fun-as-hell bands I can’t stop going to see. It’s got yards full of tune, they’re brilliant to watch, and it goes like a bloody train in all sorts of mad directions. Right up your face, and inventively loud – just tue way you know you love it.” Facebook | […]
“So good to see Winter Moon, that nutty fission of soul and punk and metal and general noise is such a pleasure. There’s even more of them than the last time I saw them, and the sound just gets bigger and bigger. There are few finer things in life than tuneful yelling backed with massive […]
“Cash are through from Melbourne and have managed to squeeze a truck-sized package of smoky power into a two-piece. Chunky great riffs, a healthy side of floor toms, and a vocal that absolutely-beyond-any-doubt *knows* it’s better than you. Because it is.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694125455774″]
“Lord Dodongo have this ridiculous sense of theatre and drama, like QOTSA staged by Lloyd-Webber. It’s insistent and atmospheric and as tough as a fucking goat. This is honestly quite a bit magnificent.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694125423894″]
“Cakefight have come to visit and they do make an entrance. Thumping and giddy, this is isn’t for the faint of heart, it’s full to the brim and spilling over the edges.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694052872254″]
“I’ve only ever seen Viral Eyes once before tonight but they made more of an impact in one set than lesser bands make in five shows. It’s a HUGE sound, dripping with tune, serrated and deadly, but enough to suck you right in to your doom. An absolute gem of the scene.” Facebook | Instagram
“Fresh up from the ‘Gong, Scab Baby seem to have travelled all this way to shout themselves hoarse and put a sharp brick in the back of our heads. Fitting neatly into the Mini Skirt / Pist Idiots. / Drunk Mums bracket of flat-out punk one minute, then going brutally heavy the next, this is […]
