"THIS IS DISCORDANT GUITAR NOISE AT IT'S BEST" Rock sound
"(THIS) QUARTET'S ONSLAUGHT OF GUITAR NOISE AND HEAVING,STOOGES INSPIRED SLUDGE ROCK IS DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED" 8/10 NME
“This record is very heavy. Heavier than a brass statue of Blue Cheer falling down a mineshaft. Heavier than all of Hawkwind, The Butthole Surfers and Black Sabbath wearing concrete boots and being sucked into a black hole....Mind-blowing." 4/5 Uncut

LAFARO
LAFARO make a rare appearance in Dublin as part of their tour with Part Chimp. Having carved out a name for themselves across NI and the UK, this Bangor based 3 piece deliver incendiary rock music which has secured them supports with acts as diverse as Scottish Domino Records favorites SONS AND DAUGHTERS, and Canadian Punk Rock veterans NO MEANS NO.
Inches
Inches is a three-piece band who have formed out of Maersk (currently on haitus). Seeing as this is only their second gig (and their Dublin debut), it's a bit hard to describe what they're like, but they play music that is occasionally like The For Carnation, June of 44, um, Fugazi, Autechre, random noises, drones, mid-'80s stadium rock, and about a million other things.
