Chew Disco (Vol. 10) :: The Kazimier (Liverpool)

Event information

New York / Liverpool DIY punk party Chew Disco returns for its 10th edition at The Kazimier (Liverpool) with fuzzed-up Liverpool garage-punk duo and SXSW darlings DIRTBLONDE, disco-noise DIY supergroup COVER GIRL, and near-naked hardcore thrash body poppers GEORGIA ASPHALT.

With resident and guest DJs playing classic post-punk, rockabilly, new wave, queercore, riot grrrl, obscure 80s trash, 90s alternative, electro and sundry rarities from John Peel's attic and Tammy Fay Baker's pill box.

Plus brand new homemade video art, b-movies, video nasties, cult cinema, feminist, GLF and Black Panther reels, vintage skin flicks and burlesque oddities!!

Brand new MEDIA SWAP (trade your CDs, mix tapes, books, vids), ZINE STALL, cupcakes, a special performance by the Chew Go-Gos and mad card tricks.

Warhol's Factory meets DUMBA in a hot mess of DIY beats, free love and human rights for queers, straights, homo-radicals, misfits, feminists, and alternative thinkers.

Free Chew Disco compilation and sweets to the first 100!!

Proceeds from Chew Disco (Vol. 10) will go to Icebreakers Uganda, an LGBT rights organisation supporting queers in Uganda - where homosexuality is currently punishable by incarceration for up to 14 years, LGBT citizens routinely face police brutality and torture during detainment, and where Ugandan MP David Bahati's Anti-Homosexuality bill (which would make homosexual behaviour punishable by death) is gaining unprecedented support from citizens (see BBC documentary Uganda: The World's Worst Place To Be Gay at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00yrt1c)

COVER GIRL
"A multi-gendered beast made from parts of Peepholes, Bloody Knees, Wetdog and Trash Kit. She made her debut at Trans, the tranny karaoke night in Shoreditch, where she forgot her drumsticks and had to use kitchen utensils. CoverGirl is all heat sweat and chaos disco."
-- Nu Magazine (UK)

DIRTBLONDE
"Dirtyfilthynastyrocknrollfuckers"
-- The Austin Chronicle, Texas

"They look and sound like a cross between Sid & Nancy and Bonnie'n' Clyde fed through a fuzz box.... They seem to leave the audience speechless."
-- BBC

GEORGIA ASPHALT
"Georgia Asphalt are three like-minded noiseniks from around London who were brought together by a love of howling guitars, awkward melodies, slick R&B and pop music and pound shop bumper value packs of glitter glue."

"Noisy gays. Somewhere between Jesus Lizard, Beyonce and Oxbow."
