Well what can we say, what an honour it was to represent this stacked two dayer with Hacktivist Waterlines Knocked For Six Killerkorp

We started off in our very own town of Ipswich at The Music Room a venue you all know well and has been a hallmark for heavy music in the Ipswich scene

And to top it all off ended it all at the legendary venue at The Norwich Waterfront where such bands like Bring Me The Horizon , Skindred, Cannibal Co**se and many more made the place known for its love of the scene.

Here is a video of the legendary hacktavist showing us some Armoured Core !

Support the scene and as always keep this frequency clear 🤙🏻

Hi all,

Here at the audio lab we like to not only provide you with a space to let your creativity flow but a place to connect with fellow artists and promotors to get you those first gigs when your start out or looking for like minded venues matching your bands unique style

Our long standing supporter of The Audio Lab Jon-luke Bloomfield guitarist of the Ipswich extreme metal band Killerkorp has created a new portal for bands and promotors to connect and book shows together in one seamless portal.

We try to promote things which are only beneficial to the music scene and keeping you all up to date with what’s going on and what’s new and I couldn’t think of a better thing to promote than this.

If you wish to support them and are interested in expanding your gig portfolio give it a shot ! It will only benefit you :)
