Support

Erotic Secrets Of Pompeii

Erotic Secrets of Pompeii play weird, angular music transmitted direct from the heart of the transgressive zone between art rock and post-punk, populated by grotesque characters and surreal imagery. Formed in Bristol in mid-2018, they released their debut album ‘Witness in the House of Pox’ shortly thereafter through Deaf Endling Records. Following a significant line-up change in 2020, they dropped a slew of sinister singles throughout the year, continuing across 2021.

Martyrials

Ruthlessly creative and creatively ruthless, the Martyrials [marr-tear-eels] produce an undeniably explosive blend of Dadaist, All killer, no filler synthesized Punk Rock and Roll!
