Event information

‘Harsh Language’ are three friends in London who play Alternative rock mixed with electronica. Since early 2022, Sean Shreeve (Guitar/Vocals), Rob Green (Bass/Vocals), Alec Albury (Drums), have leant on their love of a variety of music to combine the grit of guitar bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones, Oceansize and Placebo with the electronic noise and melancholy of acts such as Depeche Mode, Idiot Pilot and 65daysofstatic—creating something that is frenetic, familiar but, importantly, unique.

Harsh Language subvert what a modern alternative hard rock band can be, using big riffs, emotive harmonies and hectic electronica to provide a live show that is moving, impactful, and impressively loud.

FFO: Deftones, Placebo, 65daysofstatic, Depeche Mode, Enter Shikari, Idiot Pilot, Biffy Clyro, MaybeSheWill, Oceansize, Muse.

Hailing from Staffordshire, Gloucestershire, and South Yorkshire, HECTARES are a four piece alternative rock band blending raw energy, big riffs, catchy melodies, and heartfelt authenticity.

The band joined forces after years of touring stages, writing records, and living for the craft of music in other acclaimed projects [HUNDRED REASONS, THEY FELL FROM THE SKY and FREEZE THE ATLANTIC] to make NEW NOISE. Whether igniting crowds in intimate venues or roaring across large stages, HECTARES delivers music that resonates— bold, introspective, heavy and unforgettable.
