We Versus The Shark

Event information

Uncle Alberts & Milk Teeth present...


WE VERSUS THE SHARK

Absolutely explosive rock action all the way from the USA for fans of At The Drive In, Fugazi and Les Savy Fav.

"Athens quartet We Versus the Shark owes an obvious debt to Fugazi. But to understand the origins of their whirring melodic arithmetic, spastic disco-punk, and art-damaged pop, it's more helpful to examine three bands who took Ian McKaye's post-punk vision in a new direction-- Dismemberment Plan, Q and Not U, and Les Savy Fav-- at their respective turning points..." Pitchfork


PULLED APART BY HORSES

Hotly tipped Leeds rockers who count everybody from NME to The Guardian to Metal Hammer to Artrocker as fans.

"The weirdest show on earth. Choppy, twitchy riffs and yelped vocals give way to crushing noise chaos before returning to the insistently urgent and upbeat." Metal Hammer

"An incredible band that played a storming set at Leeds & Reading festival. Awesome, totally bodacious." Huw Stephens - BBC Radio 1
