SILENCE ANSWERS
ALTERNATOR

On Saturday 16th September at The Hunter Club, we're kicking off Washing Machine's Autumn of Awesomeness with the return of Bury St Edmunds' finest flightless parasitic five-piece, slamdance-instigating insects of the order siphonaptera, your favourite alternative hardcore heroes and mine, FLEAS.

Since being crowned winners of BurySOUND 2021, Fleas have stormed stages all over East Anglia, released their monstrously mighty EP 'Revenge is Forever', been hotly-tipped by BBC Introducing in Suffolk and won the NMG Award for Best Rock Act of 2022.

Supporting on the night we have a barnstorming double-brace of unfeasibly exciting aceness: Norwich's alt-metal/grunge inflected heaviosos SETTLEMENTS, d'n'b/hip-hop/punk master HIX, and brand new Bury bands SILENCE ANSWERS and ALTERNATOR. Prepare to be obliterated, but in a really nice way that won't make you itchy at all.

All ages are welcome. Under-14s must be accompanied by a parent or carer.

There is a fully-licensed bar on the premises. No ID, no alcohol.

THE HUNTER CLUB IS A SAFE SPACE
We take audience safety very seriously at The Hunter Club, and strongly believe that gigs can and should be safe spaces, free from harassment, intimidation, prejudice, bullying and violence. We expect that all artists, venue staff and attendees will respect our values, and we have a zero tolerance policy towards those who do not. Anyone who endangers the enjoyment and safety of others at a Washing Machine night will be ejected and barred. It is unfortunate that in 2023 we still have to say this stuff, but we hope that by doing so we can help to create an atmosphere where everyone feels safe and able to enjoy themselves.
