“For the brave frontline heroes at St Doctor’s Hospital, no procedure is too convoluted, no disease is too made-up, and no relationship saga is too inappropriate for the operating theatre. So sit back as we administer 50cc of lols straight to your funny bone. The Doctors will see you now.”

“Two self-recorded singles out and only three shows under their belt, existing as a second project for all members (Modern Rituals, Olive Featherstone, Seek Warmth, and a session musician), the breadth of genres inputted from each member culminates in an interesting and natural new sound. ATHENS 04: The creators of Milo's Planes and Cagework bring you Athens 04.”
From: LIFTER + ATHENS 04 + IMMY

“Psych stoner riffs, punk attitude, gritty vocals, melodic vocals, dirty noise, lyrics coming straight from the guts, and drum beats pounding like a pack of elephants coming right for you. That's a taste of what Bristolian quartet Electric Effigy has to offer. Expect two songs to not sound the same. Find yourself humming one of their choruses on your way home from the gig.”
From: ELECTRIC EFFIGY + Cities.Afterparty Michael Demelo
