TORMENTED IMP, SECOND DEATH, DOCILE and GET FUCKED at The Golden Lion
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Shitty Future give 2025 its first true teeth kicking - all in aid of Bristol Kurdistan Solidarity Network! Rolling out Tormented Imp for a rawpunk exorcism alongside the claustrophobic sludgecore of Second Death... utterly rotten, unbearably feral FFO: Poison Idea, G.I.S.M., Doom, Paranoid, Physique etc."

SHITTY FUTURES presents: LIVE PUNK MUSICS IN YOUR TOWN!!!

Benefit gig for Bristol Kurdistan Solidarity Network

TORMENTED IMP (Leeds)
Hardcore punk from Yorkshire featuring members of The Shits and Ona Snop. The band may be named after a Poison Idea song, but they're something much nastier indeed. EP out on Brainrotter Records.

SECOND DEATH (London)
Brutal fast punk from members of the much-missed Permission as well as Subdued, Last Affront, Powerplant, etc. Album out now on La Vida Es Un Mus Discos.

DOCILE
Local metallic crust punk, think Sacrilege meets Carcass... seriously!

GET FUCKED
New Bristol two-piece sludgy hardcore. Kind of like Man Is The Bastard?
