Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Eerie, angsty kraut-punk mayhem blowing in on a dubby wind from the Falmouth underground. RIZTS careen boldly through grunge, psych, goth, post-punk and shoegaze (sometimes all on the same track). Seeing is believing FFO: Girls in Synthesis, Liars, LICE, Ditz, Metz."

That Creep Records presents...
A night with RIZTS & The Shania Twainsaw Massacre & DYE
HEAVY RIFFS. ANGRY VEGAN LYRICS. DIY SOUTH WEST GRIT.
Saturday 22nd Feb 2025
Old England, Bristol
£6 ADV / £9 OTD
RIZTS
Cornish gothic grunge trio with hardcore elements blended with shoegaze fuzz. Their self titled second record 'RIZTS' debuted to audiences on red pressed vinyl in 2024, and they have since played to packed festivals, received radio 6 air time, and gleaming reviews across the board. You've got to see it to believe it.
THE SHANIA TWAINSAW MASSACRE
This comically named group's live performance is no joke. Off the back of double single release ROADKILL / ROOM in March 2024, The Twainsaw are back with their debut EP Denature, released Friday 13th December 2024. They are screeching guitar tones, they are haunting vocals, they are neck-breaking riffs, they are ready to play their debut co-headline gig for us.
DYE
Bursting onto the Bristol DIY scene, seemingly from nowhere, DYE exploded into our playlists and gig guides with RAT in December 2024. They are already establishing themselves as a unique group, with riffs to challenge Korn and energy to challenge a red bull convention, we are stoked to have them joining us.
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
