A free entry show at the hottest new venue in town! Featuring legends, all from Kent, playing math rock, progressive metal, post-punk and hardcore and more! Wednesday 14th May! Old Cigar & Olive!
TRAPS 9:30-10:00
An incredible 2 piece from Margate, blending math rock with sludge metal and topped off with post -hardcore and noise rock influences. Extremely creative and weird heavy riffs, absolutely on point drums. Members of Ohmms who were so huge that when they got signed and stopped playing in Kent, the music scene locally slowly lost all their heavy gig promoters and venues… until now! Loads of guitar pedals and even vocal effects.
UPCDOWNC 8:45-9:15
Instrumental progressive metal, a massive library online to listen to, loads of pedals again. Actually insane dynamics of volumes and atmospheres, one of the most technically sound things you will ever see in Folkestone ever ever ever. So many ranges of sounds and just overall super talented musicians in this 2 piece. www.upcdownc.bandcamp.com
JRUGS 7:45-8:15
Fuzzy and noisy stoner rock and metal, just a couple of guys being dudes and jamming out to some banging riffs. Huge, massive sound to hypnotise the masses. Instrumental again, sometimes pretty brutal and sludgey. They play beautiful solos to slow dance to!
PUNCHING SWANS 7:00-7:30
Funky post-punk and math rock, sounds a little but like Nomeansno. Danceable upbeat stuff, tongue in cheek protest type lyrics, bleak and cynical take on the world, big charisma on the mic, loads of catchy riffs and beats. Noisy bits, proper weird bits, just wacky fellows.
