Black Marble + TBC

18+ event.—When Chris Stewart set out to write and record his third album as Black Marble, he was newly living in Los Angeles, fresh off a move from New York. The environment brought much excitement and possibility, but the distance had proved too much for the car he brought along. With it out of commission indefinitely, he purchased a bus pass and planned his daily commute from his Echo Park apartment to his downtown studio, where he began to shape Bigger Than Life. The route wound all through the city, from the small local shops of Echo Park to the

Actors + Auger – Bristol

ACTORS : The Jason Corbett-led outfit ACTORS are standing on the shoulders of titans with their brand of the style, and could almost be referred to as “post-post-punk”. In a period where we narrowcast rather than broadcast so fans and new music-seekers can firmly plant themselves in a niche, Corbett takes swings at creating sounds and production techniques that one would not usually find in a starter package of cliché plugins and samples. Backed by a stoic yet playful backing band, the frontman shows an enthusiasm while performing and recording that often isn’t seen or heard in his preferred genre.

The Birthday Massacre + Vanilla Sugar + Witch Of The Vale

The night is short. It weighs heavy, but the light always awaits us,” begins the darkly poetic taglinefrom vocalist Chibi about ‘Diamonds’, the eighth album by The Birthday Massacre. In these currenttroubling times that have forced the Canadian post-punk goth act to postpone a North Americantour that had been due to commence on its release date, we can only look forward to brighter daysahead. The tour will be the first opportunity for UK based fans to see new bassist Brett Carruthers performwith the group. Carruthers is also the frontman of fellow Toronto-based act A Primitive Evolution,who released an excellent album of industrial tinged rock entitled ‘Becoming’ on Metropolis Recordsin 2018 and will remain

Ever since the release of his self-titled LP in 2012, the Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based Cameron Findlay has perfected dark pop with his oeuvre that teeters between the EBM, electro and goth genres. His productions, such as 2019’s “Too Deep” and 2021’s “Faceless,” dive to the most derelict corners of foggy, strobe-lit clubs: there is no choice but to dance. But there is an uncanny softness and obvious songwriting ability to compose heart-wrenching songs that are both
