Gimic gigs next week should you choose to accept them. Slide for details. Stoked to be playing a couple of shows with our friends Bad Breeding, and checking out Witching from the States among a bunch of other class bands. Still slinging 7”s and also a tape with a few spicy new tracks which will remain offline for now.

THE FINAL* PUBLIC DISSERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: RECONNECTIONS FEST III
-----
APDA present an idyllic summer afternoon of DIY punk featuring:
✯ LIFE FORMS (Off-World Garage / Falmouth)
Jerky and tight garage punk from Kernow with MARKED MEN’s pop hooks and DEVO’s jerk and HANK WOOD’s snarl and LIQUIDS’ snot.
✯ PREY (Hardcore Punk / High Wycombe)
Fast, aggro hardcore punk from the rolling Chiltern Hills. Plenty of hooks and pace changes to keep things interesting, this will appeal to fans of early FUCKED UP. Happy days.
Ex/Current members of (deep breath) PI$$ER, OMERTA, TV-PARTY, SHITTY LIMITS, BONESTORM, BTRL, PERSONNEL, FILAMENTS.
✯ F. EMASCULATA (X-Files Hardcore / Falmouth)
Raging X-Files themed hardcore with a bit of skate punk hook but met on a really, really bad day.
FFO: F-MINUS and smoking your MORLEYS like the black-lunged motherfucker you are.
✯ V.H.S (Hardcore / Plymouth)
Fast punk with some 80s Californian swagger that takes a dive through the Blockbuster-bins of 80s cinematic classics.
✯ MONOLITHIAN (Doom Sludge / Falmouth)
Monolithian "...will deconstruct your skull with their epic mind-numbing blackened doom metal madness." - heavyplanet
FFO: Crushing heaviness.
✯ ID ID ID (Noise Rock / Southampton)
New(ish) Southampton noise rock from Old(ish) heads with a dual drum attack, harsh electronics, vile guitar and bass, and demented yelping. Shades of early SWANS.
Ft. ex/members of HUNTING LODGE, OLDER THAN DIRT, DIS, HUMMUNE, PARADE OF ENEMIES and BODUF SONGS.
✯ SCAB (grindcore / Pompey)
Grindcore from somewhere over the Solent with a scatalogical fixation and shades of TRENCHER
✯ S0DDS (Post-Punk / Southampton)
Grotty kitchen sink provincial punk with bouncy guitars that sound like the indie band at the punk night or the punk band at the indie night (decide for yourselves).

*This will be our last regular monthly show. After 50 shows, other commitments mean that we need to contribute to Southampton DIY Hardcore Punk in a less intense way for a while.
Few quick things on this month’s functions:
❗️Catastrophe can’t make the Bad Breeding show anymore, and have been replaced by the evercrushing local legends PASCAGOULA. The Pasca boys have a new album due out via @humanworthmusic this July, check out the single and go pre-order that shizzzz.
‼️ Scowl & Jivebomb hit town next week - only 40 tickets left, this WILL sell out
⁉️ METH’s first UK show at the end of the month is also fast approaching - me & @abyssalcvlt are stoked on this lineup and you should be too
📼 - finally, for anyone waiting on web orders - nearly everything outstanding has shipped now, so if you’re still waiting on an order it’ll be out shortly. Appreciate everyone’s patience!
FYI still waiting for NIX tapes to arrive, they’ll be on their way as soon as I have my hands on them 🫡
Next month we’re teaming up with @abyssalcvlt to host Meth.’s first UK show 🩸
Stoked to have a band in town that I never thought I’d ever see live, let alone book a show for! Check this out if you like your hardcore chaotic, smotheringly noisy & indescribably dark…
Support comes from Scab, Epsom Salts & Healing Wound. Tickets on sale now.

We have Motive and Narkotyk coming down to Portsmouth on the 13th of June joined by locals Scab. Come down for some good old D-Beat. This is a small venue so let’s pack it out, ticket link coming soon.
This is a re upload because I forgot to put the date on the poster.
