3/3 August shows done!

Ended on a high last night at the beautiful The Ivy House with the legends swelt and .me.visit.me

NEW SHOW ALERT!

Delighted to be bringing this gnarly as heck hardcore & screamo bill to the Old Blue in September.

Death of Youth: melodic, emotional hardcore a la Touché, La Dispute etc, with a healthy dose of (teeheehee) thrown in for good measure.

Inner Dog: riffy, wonky, furious post-hc with great big massive hooks. ATDI, Pretty Girls Make Graves, Hot Cross etc etc

Hiding from Mirrors: gazy screamo band so niche they’ve not even released anything yet! Have it on good authority there’s a trumpet in there somewhere.

Christina Carpenter: London screamo lot fresh off supporting the likes of Ostraca, Cady etc

£10 advance on Dice, link as always in bio!

TONIGHT! Last call for an 11/10 rock show at the Victoria, headlined by this lot - The Yacht Club.

They’ve just released a new single, ‘The Greatest Misadventure’, so give that a spin ahead of time eh. Packed to bursting with feelings and bleepy-bloopy guitars.

What’s more, we’ve got Tethered, Fuzzy Heart and Fly Fly Triceratops in support. If that’s not bang for your buck, I don’t know what is.

Just a few hours to grab a cheaper advance ticket off Dice. Link in bio - or chuck us a message for unwaged/cheaplist x

Day after tomorrow! An evening of loud guitars and feelings hits Dalston’s iconic Victoria.

Fuzzy Heart take the stage second. If you’re into cautionary tales about weird friendships and getting too mashed, set to peppy rock music somewhere at the indie/punk/emo intersection, this is for you.

Tickets on Dice, link in bio, cheaper in advance, message for cheap/free if yer skint x
