Sheffield, Berlin/Bristol and Stoke-Upon-Trent have kindly lent Repeater #4 their favourite sons and daughters for an epic evening of bizarre sonic chaos and unflinching dirty degenerate soundscapes.
Dearthworms are fast becoming one of Sheffield's favourite children. Their debut album Sapsucker is a jagged punch of weirdness, blending chaotic riffs with surreal, vivid lyrics. Their music isn't designed to be safe — it’s sleazy, gloriously unhinged and delights in dismantling expectations and throwing the pieces back at you.
Making their Sheffield debut are Berlin/Bristol's Shoun Shoun, delivering atmospheric noise-pop and art-psych-rock with the urban ennui of Nico and the noise of Sonic Youth. They are one of the UK's hardest working bands and they could undoubtedly be your new favourite. Our advice — catch them while you can!
Sheffield's very own Electric Tape Recorder mix the absurd, shambolic and the strange — recanting nightmarish tales in equal measures. Their live performances are gathering momentum with their raw, vulnerable and dark-dead-pan approach.
If you haven't heard of Ernie K. Fegg before, you certainly will afterwards! Ernie is an enigmatic figure that will bring us a raw, unforgettable and jittery lo-fi experimental performance complimented with Al's drumming idiosyncrasies. They create chaotic soundscapes blending stream-of-consciousness monologues with unconventional instrumentation — It's true outsider art and it's sure not for the faint of heart!
You will not want to miss this one.
