Our recent recommendations for The Old England Pub

Sell out warning! Raucous noir-punks Grandma’s House bring it on home to the Old E after conquering the world at large. If you ain’t already been won over by those razor blade vocals, toxic surf-grunge guitars and galloping drums, this is a no-brainer FFO: Ditz, Lambrini Girls, M(h)aol, Surfbort. A night celebrating Grandmas House' new single!

More DIY delights at the Old E - nature is healing! Portrait Of’s sinuous experimental symphonies teeter at the mid-point of jagged post-punk and noodling indie rock, threatening total collapse but always perfectly controlled. Top tier local support from noise rock trio Grubbing (fka Big Pigeon) and psych-blues balladeers Dogs Don’t Die. Portrait Of, Grubbing (FKA Big Pigeon), Dogs Dont Die

Blossoming newbie three-piece Ladye are lush, woozy and full of 90s indie sentimentality: languid dreampop-rock that channels The Cranberries/The Sundays with an extra dose of fuzz n crunch. Vital scene knowledge FFO: Alvvays, Soccer Mommy, Widowspeak, Soot Sprite. Ladye, Street Art, Digsby

All good things must come to an end they say… but the freewheeling revolving-door punk jazz quartet focused on Harry Furniss’ squalling cornet seemed like it would last forever. Bid adieu to this era of no-wave madness with support from kosmische trombone sound artsters Organza Ray. End of an era with special guests Eleni Poulou ( Ex The Fall ) + trombone master Hilary Jeffery + The Fullwit Pop Up Trio

Ritual psych-folk, heavy on the widescreen fantasy and mystical doom. Smote are capable of opening new pagan pathways in the minds of devoted listeners. FFO: Sunburned Hand Of The Man, Natural Snow Buildings, Six Organs of Admittance, Amon Düül, The Wicker Man, G!YBE. Pagan, Ritual, Doom.
