But a night of free gig-awesomeness with Concrete Lung and AlterRed @ The Kings Cross Scala on Saturday 30th January certainly does.
Really? Yes, it's to celebrate the first birthday of Unholy Club (which we're sure has been going for longer than a year, but there y'go...).
Better read the small print tho as, as always, there's a teeny, tiny catch. To get in for free you have to roll up between 10.30pm and 11pm. Between 11 and 1.30pm it's £3 and post 11.30pm it's a whopping £6, so get there early eh, and take advantage of their supersaver discount deal.
Team Armalyte shall be there, probably dancing like cocks, but what's new...

DATE AND TIME:
Saturday: 30/01/2010 10.30pm

CONCRETE LUNG On stage at 11:30pm

VENUE:
UNHOLY Club, The Scala, Kings Cross, London.
The Scala, 275 Pentonville Road, Kings Cross, London. N1 9NL.

Cost:
FREE entry B4 11pm, Then £3 until 11:30pm, Then £6 after that - No advance tickets.

Unholy club: 10:30pm - 6am 4 Floors of great alternative/industrial music And of course great cheap drinks deals!
 
 
 
 
 
 
Yeah, you know you've been holding your breath, waiting for this.
Taken from Sphere , here are the highlights. Needless to say, we share many of their sentiments...
CD out early Feb '10, altho advance copies will be available at tomorrow night's Grendel gig @The Camden Underworld...

"Brutal, deadly and delightful – Concrete Lung are one of the finest Industrial metal bands we have heard this year..."

"This material knocks the socks off of early many of this era’s international crossover pretenders and is set to bring coldwave kicking and screaming into 2010 with gargantuan riiffs, jackhammer drumming and unrelenting punk vocals.."

"‘Pyre Burns’... is one of the coolest songs that we have heard in a long while..."

"This country hasn’t had a better band in this genre for a long time."

Score: 4 outta 5

Get in! Thanks, as always, to the awesome Sphere folks....
 
 
 
 
 
 

As a sign of things to come from their/our forthcoming gig @ Slimelight, here's the title track from The Pain Machinery's 'Total Recall' EP which is out TODAY! Woo!
Ramp up the volume and go fuckin' apeshit...


 
 
 
 
 
 

To celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ, we'll be hosting a festive eve of industrial elektro terror at the Slimelight on Saturday 19th December. Headlined by those Swedish miscreants The Pain Machinery, who will also be celebrating the release of their 'Total Recall EP' (on Advoxya/First Aid Recordings), with support from DigiCore and Kommand+Kontrol. Tickets are a not unreasonable £8 in advance, which is a bit of a recession-buster when you consider we're throwing in a free night of Slimes post gig.
Want details? Here they be...

We need all the f(r)iends we can get. We do make an effort to not plagiarise ourselves - ie, you get a different torrent of idiocy to that which we spew forth from LJ, if only to stop ourselves from going nuts, so adding us won't just duplicate all you read here.
Team Armalyte thanks you...
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here be the playlist from our Last Men Standing night at The Intrepid Fox. It was loud. It was heavy. It was sheer insanity ending with Backstreet Boys. Honestly, no-one has a sense of humour these days. Ah well, until the next time, feast your eyes (and ears) on this.
Thanks to January and the all the groovy Fox folk...


Last Men Standing - 23.10.09 )
 
 
 
 
 
 


For those that didn't get the memo, Duncan from popular beat combo Collapse (though he'll always be Duncan Needleye to me) invited me down to DJ alongside him at the Intrepid Fox a couple of weeks back. Clearly we did a good job as we've been invited back this coming Friday, the 23rd October (from 9pm 'til 2.30am, clock watchers), which is a feat clearly worthy of a resounding "Hell yeah!"
For the benefit of those that care (most likely nobody then), here be a list of songs wot we done pressed Play on, usually at the right time, which is a minor miracle considering the amount of Strongbow (still waiting on that endorsement, boys) and Jaeger quaffed.
 

Bring on the metaaaaaallllllllllll \m/ )
 
 
 
 
 
 
Apprently not, as Flag prmotions are throwing VNV on @ The Scala next Wednesday evening, not even a week after their headlining show @ The Islington Academy.
AFAIK the Islington show is yet to sell out, though I hear it's very close.
So, good idea? Bad idea? Would folk really want to pay to see the same band twice in one week when we're, apparently, in the grip of a recession and there's a load of awesome gigs (and Christmas) just around the corner??
Crazy times, but it'll be interesting to see how this turns out..
 
 
 
 
 
 
Existing on the lowest strata of the music industry doesn't exactly pay the bills, so the day job for Transport For London is somewhat of a godsend.
Was somewhat surprised earlier on to see, on the frontpage of the company's intranet site, the headline 'Launch of the Mayor's Daft Transport Policy'.
If only it had been a genuine typo as opposed to actually being the result of my cack-handed inability to read , but, in my defence, I had been rubbing my eyes a lot beforehand...
