At last, an ensemble from the UK underground that is challenging, Fresh & invigorating; emerging from the granite wastes of London, England comes the towering behemoth known as Capricorns. (Members of Iron Monkey/Orange Goblin/Fabric/ Bridge & Tunnel )

Noise Noise Allore!
Take their cues from such post punk luminaries as devo and gang of four but add an urgency that is all their own, a world where rhythmic time changes vie for attention with angular shards of guitar and a vocalist that can barley contain the voice from within his own body, a highly charged sexual rush of a show that will leave you confused and wanting more..as all good lovers do.

Their surreal and improvisational stage show whose brutal honesty and sensual grittiness has been hypnotizing crowds everywhere .
THEIR INTENTION: TO LEAD THE WORLD INTO A DANCING FRENZY!!!

Crystal Wrists
A band born in a small town. A place that sits in the shadow of churches, industrial blocks and neon lit underpasses seems only fitting for a band resonate of a darker yet possibly more vital era.
There is an infection that lies in their sound. A drama, a design, an art, an honesty and a performance. Referencing bands such as Bauhaus or The Psychedelic Furs

Ron Athey
Born into an extremely devout but dysfunctional Pentecostal family in Connecticut 1961, the young Ron Athey was raised to be a minister and feted as a gift from God by the congregation. But whilst this religious upbringing set the course for Athey's life it certainly wasn't in the direction his family intended. Living in Los Angeles, Athey became a self-harming heroin addict until finding a channel for the pain and confusion of his childhood in performance art works which have consistently challenged and trounced taboos such as HIV, incest and suicide - becoming one of the world's most acclaimed and infamous artists in the process.
