Our recent recommendations for The Old England Pub
Spine-tingling gothic shoegaze at the Old E: London’s Velvetine are lush, reverb-drenched and pulsating with dark drama, like a Siouxsie Sioux/Sharon Van Etten/Cigarettes After Sex cross-collision. Sublime local support in dream-pop duo Duvet Daze and indie rock newbies Comfort.
Velvetine at The Old England
A genre-blurring goldmine, headed up by alt-dad rock supergroup of the weirdo underground Sunglasz Vendor – in rare improv form! Plus band-backed spontaneous verse from local poet Devin Birse, woozy ambient free jazz cross-pollinations from David David, and the cosmic synth-psych of Warped Frequencies.
+++ David David / Devin Birse and Warped Freqs
Stolen Body-endorsed mind-melting Martian stoner doom! Longheads are indeed a space travelling band - loaded with big stacks, earth-shaking fuzz solos and epic passages of synapse-warping signature changes. Heavy psych done right FFO: Sabbath, King Gizzard, Slift, Electric Wizard, Spaceslug.
Psych Rock Extravaganza
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!
