The Broken Oak Duet
Back for their first show since about 2017, reforming for this special event. One baritone guitar, one drumkit, one hell of an instrumental racket.
Zilch.
Zilch. are an alt-rock trio that melt the boundaries between the heavier side of punk, the gritty sludge of the “Seattle Sound”, and pop sensibility.
Bloody Head
Sprawling themselves across noise, groove, dirge & psychedelia, Bloody Head are one of the most exciting punk bands to come out in a long while. Touched by Sabbath, Stooges and Les Rallizes Denudes, steamrollering your senses is to be expected.
Mothwasp
Mothwasp descend from the long line of leather-and-denim clad noise-mongers that post-industrial Birmingham is so fond of producing, yet remain the Midlands’ “least tattooed rock band”. Combining the brute force of drums and guitar, experimental film soundtrack techniques and audio-responsive video experiments derived from defunct analogue projection apparatus, the duo sculpt movies for the ears and soundtracks for the eyes.
Mt. Yonder
Born of a need for release. Four backgrounds spent in overlapping circles of eclectic scenes, coalescing to create an urgent sound that is centred around the immediacy of angular rock, whilst retaining a focus on melody.
The Arboretum
Dirty driving bass lines, searing guitars and industrial rhythms combine with stunning cinematic visuals to create an Alt-Rock / Post -Punk/ Psych-Rock sound that infuses into a sonic space of mental awakening.
Dusker
Dusker are a noise rock band who play angular, cathartic music addressing themes of modernity, struggle, love and grief. Having spent recent years touring extensively in Europe and Britain, Dusker now to look to the release of their debut album.
The Financial Year
Bristol trio into driving rhythms, guitars that are not overly concerned with the right notes, and bass you could dance to if you could let go once in a while.
